Legislative Agenda

The Wisconsin Bike Fed is the only statewide organization that advocates for better bicycling for everyone who rides a bike. Whether you ride for transportation, train for health, fitness and competition or just ride for fun on trails, our staff and board are working to make it easier, safer and more fun. We work with the governor’s office, the state legislature, and state, county and local agencies and departments. Below you will find an overview of our legislative priorities and individual pages with more background for our legislative asks.
