Decade debate in US House

The US House of Representatives will debate our proposal for a Decade of Action tomorrow (Wed 23 Sept). Concurrent Resolution 74 'supporting the goals and ideals of a decade of action for road safety with a global target to reduce by 50 percent the predicted increase in global road deaths between 2010 and 2020' was sponsored by Democrat Congressman Robert Wexler and is co-sponsored by 45 other representatives from both parties.

Our campaign in the US has mobilised a lot of support behind this, in an effort to engage politicians and raise awareness. We'll update on any developments here.
