Legislative Update

Dear Texas Riders, Some of you know me, some of you have just been added to my email list. My name is Greg Bodin, better known as "The Blonde Bomber". During the Legislative Day Weekend, Sputnik (TMRA2's State Chairman) and I talked about the open position of Motorcycle Riders Foundation(MRF) State Representative for Texas. I have volunteered to take the job. I will be the liaison between Texas Riders and the MRF. ABATE and TMRA2 touch on some national issues, but are designed to tackle issues at the State Legislature level. MRF is our biker rights voice in Washington D.C. State Reps must be endorsed by the State Motorcycle Rights Organizations(SMRO's). My main function is to spread the word, when new national issues on biker rights come up. The most effective way to do this is via email. I would ask you to share all of the information with your respective clubs, SMRO chapters, COC's, friends, relatives, and email contacts. I can also have as many Asst. State Reps I need.
If you are a member of MRF and have email access, you are qualified. It would be ideal, and a great benefit for the Texas Biker Rights Movement, if an officer, or chapter member, of every ABATE chapter, TMRA2 Chapter, and one officer from each of the 8 Confederation of Clubs would volunteer to be an assistant State Rep. Many of you, who are in these leadership positions, already keep up with our national biker rights issues, and talk about them at your meetings, so stepping up would not be a stretch for you. The main goal (not the only goal) of the State Rep Program is a communication system, MRF contacts me, I contact you, you contact your people just like a "phone tree". The system also works the other way. When you see an issue that needs attention on the national level, I'll will pass it along to our D.C. office. Setting up communication is the first step in my job. Anyone interested in joining the MRF or serving as an Asst. MRF State Rep can reply to this email or call me @
(432)-213-4421.

I need some assistants in those far corners, I will be contacting some of you personally.
