Rep. Earl Blumenauer Reflects on His Career, And Why ‘Bike-Partisanship’ is America’s Secret Weapon

As co-founder of the Congressional Bike Caucus Rep. Earl Blumaneuer (D– Ore.) has long been one of Washington’s staunch advocates for sustainable transportation — not least during the writing of the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law, which he fought to make better for vulnerable road users through the inclusion of programs like Safe Streets for All and Reconnecting Communities. 

Now, on the two-year anniversary of that law’s passage, we sit down with Earl himself to reflect on the BIL’s bright spots — as well as his own 27-year career in Congress, which he recently announced is about to come to an end. And along the way, we also chat about how bikes can help unify a polarized political landscape, how a federal parking cash-out law could create a more just society, and why he considers a little site called Streetsblog the ‘secret weapon’ of advocates everywhere. 

Hang tight; we’ll post a excerpted transcript of this conversation here soon.
