Act today. Save tomorrow.
At Pedal Electric keeping up with new trends, news, and policies surrounding the EV community is key to our progression. More recently the E-BIKE Act is a policy we have been following closely. The good people at REI have done an amazing job putting together the below message and a method to submit a message to congress to help make E-Bikes more affordable for all.
That's because in addition to providing safe and convenient ways to get from place to place, battery-powered e-bikes displace carbon emissions from vehicles and lower pollution levels. E-bikes are increasingly popular for people looking to commute to work, run errands, or enjoy the outdoors without needing a car. But we need to make sure more people - of all income levels - can access and enjoy this form of low-carbon transport.
If 15% of today's carbon-emitting car trips were made by electric bicycles (e-bike), America's carbon emissions would shrink by more than 11%.

It's time to build support for this exciting new bill that can make climate-friendly transport more affordable for everyone. Take action today by telling Congress to pass the E-BIKE Act and make e-bikes more affordable for all.
