May Is Motorcycle Awareness Month
This week, the leadership of the House Motorcycle Caucus introduced H. Res 367, expressing support for the designation of May 2025 as Motorcycle Safety Awareness Month. Rep. Tim Walberg (MI), the longtime chairman of the House Motorcycle Caucus was the lead sponsor for this bill.
Across the nation, cities and states are also introducing motorcycle awareness resolutions and decrees. H. Res 367 lists several reasons why May is important for motorcycling awareness. Perhaps the best section of the resolution is the line, “Motorcyclists have a right to the road and that all motorists should safely share the roadways.”
Those in the motorcyclists’ rights movement understand that the future of motorcycling is threatened. We thank the lawmakers who took the time to clearly point out that bikers have a right to use our nation’s roadways!
Happy May, Ride Safe and Ride Free

2025 Awareness Resolution
ARIZONA UPDATE—Victory for Arizona Riders
SB1107 — the Motorcycle Safety Fund Continuation Bill — has officially PASSED and is now headed to the Governor’s desk.
This bill protects YOUR $1 motorcycle registration fee from being swept, as has happened in previous years. Your money should go where it was intended: motorcycle safety training, awareness campaigns, and saving lives. Thank you Senator Shawnna LM Bolick for continuing to champion motorcycle safety and awareness!!! You’re a superstar!
Let’s keep the pressure on — contact the Governor today and urge her to sign SB1107 into law. This is a win for every Arizona motorcyclist.
Abate of Arizona is fighting for you!

TAKE ACTION ON THE CONGRESSIONAL REVIEW ACT–H.J. Res 87 and H.J. Res 88
This week, the House of Representatives passed two bills crafted to overturn regulations approved by the Biden Administration, allowing California to mandate more electric trucks and cars be sold in the state. The bills, H.J. Res 87 and H.J. Res 88, will help to protect the internal combustion engine, a top legislative priority for the Motorcycle Riders Foundation. They received bipartisan support in the House of Representatives.
Now that the House has started the ball rolling, it is time for the U.S. Senate to act. This process is called the Congressional Review Act, which only requires a simple majority to pass the bill. The usual 60-vote filibuster threshold does not apply to these bills in the Senate.
Contact your U.S. Senator, tell them to protect the internal combustion engine.
