Governor Parson Vetoed SB 147!
Thank you to everyone who contacted Governor Mike Parson regarding the importance of maintaining the Missouri all-rider motorcycle helmet law.
On Friday, July 12 Governor Parson vetoed Senate Bill (SB) 147 which would have repealed the Missouri motorcycle helmet law. The voice of brain injury was heard – thanks to the emails, calls and letters from many advocates!
Stay tuned – additional action may be needed if the Missouri Legislature attempts to override Governor Parson’s veto of SB 147 on the scheduled Annual Veto Day on September 11, 2019.
Thank you again for your help with the veto of SB 147.
Sincerely,
Maureen Cunningham
