I got this email this morning from a lady. Just passing along the information. [glow=red,2,300]DO WHAT YOU CAN DO TO HELP![/glow]
********************************************
Hi, Dawn,
Thank you for the information. I talked to Royce Wood
of the AMA.
Mr. Wood has said the best thing to do is to contact
your local district Senator and Senator Bernest Cain.
He said that every phone call and email helps. Sen.
Cain's bill bans any and all size of ATV's from kids
under 12. If you could let people know about this,
that would be great. This is our family sport.
I have also enclosed some links for you.
Thank You very much,
Mekay Nakvinda
Please write, email, and phone your local Senator and
Senator Bernest Cain in objection to senate bill 1830,
which states in section 1 paragraph B that
Any parent, legal guardian or person having actual
responsibility for a child under twelve (12)years of
age, who knows or should have known the child is
operating or riding as a passenger on an all-terrain
vehicle, shall be guilty of a misdemeanor and, upon
conviction, be subject to the penalties as provided in
subsection A of this section.
Also contact friends, family, associates, and anyone
that may be affected by this bill.

Link to AMA action form letter against Senate bill
1830
capwiz.com/amacycle/issues/alert/?alertid=8420391&type=ST
CONTENT OF FORM LETTER:
Senate Bill 1830 would make it illegal for anyone
under that age of 12 to operate an ATV.
This bill will deny my family the right to participate
in our preferred family recreation. Families should
be free to decide what to do in their spare time and
parents must have discretion over the type of
recreation in which their children participate.
I believe that rider education is the best approach to
the long-term reduction of ATV-related injuries and
fatalities. Rider education promotes the use of
safety equipment, safe riding and improves rider
skill.
I am concerned about ATV safety, but the safety of
motorized recreation can be enhanced without making
the participation of young persons a crime.
I respectfully request that you oppose SB 1830.
Please include personal contact info (eg: name,
address, phone, email) when sending to your Senators.
Please Email us or call if you have any questions or
need more information.
Thank you.
Cory, Mekay, Nicholas, and Nathaniel
