ABATE of Wisconsin Issues a "National Call to Action"
By Dean Bartosh
Motorcycle Groups Unite to Fight Federal
Regulations
On June 23rd in front of an enthusiastic group of
motorcyclists from across the country, ABATE of
Wisconsin Executive Director
Ric
Mellon
issued a "National Call to Action" for
motorcyclists to unite for the impending battle
against freedom-busting federal regulations.
"You're going to start hearing about the Center
for Disease Control who has picked up the
traditional Department of Transportation duties as
well as the insurance and medical communities," he
declared. "They are going to start pushing for
mandatory helmets, road-side checkpoints and
conspicuity clothing along with surveillance
technology to protect us. And when that doesn't
work, they will go after the very thing we love -
Our motorcycles!" ABATE of Wisconsin's "Call to
Action" is already achieving results as they have
received organizational support from the
Motorcycle Riders Foundation, the St. Croix Valley
Riders and several Motorcycle Clubs.
For years, motorcycle rights organizations have
fended off attacks from the government agencies in
charge of our roadways. Agencies such as the
Department of Transportation, the National Highway
Traffic and Safety Administration and other
bureaucracies have tried to implement helmet laws,
motorcycle only road-side checkpoints and other
such measures to restrict motorcyclists' freedoms.
They have been largely ineffective up to now
because of the strong lobbying power of motorcycle
rights organizations such as ABATE of Wisconsin.
ABATE of Wisconsin, Inc. which was founded in 1974
is a motorcycle rights and safety organization
dedicated to "Freedom of the Road." ABATE of
Wisconsin's goal is to give the motorcyclists of
Wisconsin a strong, united voice with regard to
their future, their way of life, their safety, and
their legal rights as motorcyclists and citizens.
