The mission statement of the Congressional Bike Caucus is as follows:[1]

“ The Bike Caucus is the voice in our nation’s capital for millions of cyclists actively working for safer streets, pro-bike policies, and livable communities. It espouses the following principles:[1]
  • Bicycling is the most efficient form of transportation designed—it’s low-cost, creates little wear and tear on our roads, and boosts local economies.
  • Bicycling strengthens our communities by making Americans healthier, improving air quality, and adding to quality of life.
  • Our national transportation infrastructure should provide safe and appropriate transportation choices for all citizens.
  • Congress should encourage bicycling as a mode of transportation that has many positive benefits for the nation.
