US Defenders Update
A brief update on our efforts with our anti-profiling bill for Oklahoma : As most of you already know by now , our anti-profiling bill was pulled by Senator Bass . It appears that some in Oklahoma feel that it is more important to work on a federal anti-profiling bill only and boycott an Oklahoma anti-profiling bill .
As we all know from the MidSouth MILE of 2015 where guest speaker from MRF ( Motorcycle Rights Foundation ), Hardtail , clearly pointed out during his seminar the importance of not only the federal anti-profiling bill and the support of it , but the importance of each and every individual state passing anti-profiling bills as well . So as we start approaching and preparing for 2017 legislative session , we hope that everyone in the motorcycle community takes a stand to support our ( Oklahoma ’ s ) motorcycle anti-profiling bill in addition to supporting all the federal anti-profiling bills as well .
We are working on other motorcycle safety and awareness programs as well as legislation that will be coming up in the 2017 legislative session . Our Legislation M . E . A . L .’ s ( Motorcyclists Educating & Affecting Legislation ) have not yet been confirmed on dates for the 2017 legislative session , but we will share that information with you as soon as it is available . Contact me with questions , concerns or to participate in the process .

It is a registration of independent riders from all ages and all walks of life and rides of the motorcycle community--independent cruisers , sport and dirt-bike riders and even non-riders alike who understand that protecting our “ Right to Ride ” and improving the motorcycling image is everyone ’ s responsibility . We must all do our part to keep motorcycling a true expression of freedom ! When a Call-to-Action comes down the pike you will be contacted and asked to help implement the action — whether it is a letter writing campaign , showing up at a state capitol , or boots on the ground to assist with post disaster relief or recovery assistance , or other Community Action Projects and help improve the image of motorcyclists in our communities . Remember liberty is the right to choose , and freedom is the result of that choice .
