AB 516 (V.M. Perez), which strengthens the "Safe Routes to Schools" initiative, is on the Governor's desk after passing both houses of the legislature. The bill would encourage walking and bicycling by providing much needed funding to low-income communities for safe transportation routes. The resulting increase in physical activity would have positive health impacts, particularly in communities of color. Send a letter of support to the Governor TODAY!
