The speed limit repeal, as part of the National Highway System act
approved by both the US House and Senate, is having a tough time working
it's way through the conference committee that's trying to hammer out
differences in the two bills. The Senate's repeals the speed limit for
cars but not trucks, the House's just plain repeals it.
Three Senators on the conference commitee (Moynihan, Chafee and Reid) are
fighting HARD to keep it in the final version of hte bill. They're
meeting right now (5:30 pm CT, Tuesday) and will probably not reach an
agreement tonight, so calling early Wednesday is also okay. They should
have a final bill by Thursday.
Call their offices and let them know that's not acceptable. All are a/c
202:
Moynihan: 224-4451, Reid 224-3542, and Chafee: 224-2921.
It doesn't matter which state you're from.
