 WE NEED YOUR HELP

AMENDMENT TO HOUSE BILL 1189
This Bill was originally written for the protection of property owners, when using their land for snowmobile and dirt bike training on personal property. No mention of ATVs anywhere in the bill.
Any Safety training that ATV Traction has done in the past on private property, was NOT covered by any insurance unless we or one of our sponsors paid for it. This has cost the club a lot of headaches and money in past years.

Through a lot of hard work by ATV Traction DCNR Youth Safety Instructor, Jim Campbell, State Representative John Evans and Injury Prevention Coordinator, Pat Gifford, RN from Hamot Medical Center, the amendment now specifically mentions ATVs in this bill. It was like pulling teeth, but they "got er done"  Now all we have to do is contact your local representative and let them know that voting for Bill 1189 IS A MUST !

UPDATE:
This issue is currently on hold.

It has taken over a year to get this Bill to the House, and now House democratic leadership has stated that they will not run the bill with any amendments, thus OUR part in this goes down the drain.
American Bikers Aimed Towards Education - A.B.A.T.E. Of Pa., who's own name implies EDUCATION, is also pressuring to have the ATV amendment removed from the Bill.

Click on the "HOUSE" tab on the top section of the page and look up your representative. Drop him a note and tell him how vital this Bill is to us. Without your help, this is not going to be accomplished.

WE NEED YOUR HELP NOW PEOPLE!  IF OUR AMMENDMENT IS REMOVED FROM THIS BILL, OUR CHILDREN WILL PAY THE PRICE.
