Through the Motorcycle Riders Foundation State Representative Program, local motorcyclists are kept up to date on the MRF's legislative and training agendas. The MRF State Rep program allows information to pass quickly to the State Motorcyclists' Rights Organizations, as well as allowing information to reach the MRF concerning individual states. The men and women involved in the MRF's State Rep Program are dedicated volunteers from the membership ranks who are willing to give their time and energy to build, maintain and enhance the relationship between the MRF and all motorcyclists within their states. They must work closely with the State Motorcyclists' Rights Organizations, attending their meetings and events, keeping the SMROs abreast of national issues, international issues, and issues affecting motorcylists in other states. MRF State Reps promote the MRF by all possible means, such as making presentations to SMROs and other groups. Writing articles for newspapers and newsletters, membership recruiting, and speaking to individual motorcyclists are other examples of promoting the MRF. Some states do not have an MRF State Rep at this time. If you are interested in applying for the position, some of the requirements for appointment are: You must be a member of the MRF, and have been a member for at least one year prior to appointment. You must have the ability to be contacted via telephone, and computer availability with Internet access is recommended. You must possess the ability to relay information to your State Motorcyclists' Rights Organization(s), as well as keep the MRF informed regarding your state's events and concerns. To become an MRF State Representative, candidates must submit two things to the Director of State Representative Program: (1) An MRF State Representative application, obtained from the Director of State Representative Program. (2) A written endorsement from your State Motorcylists' Rights Organization. If your state has more than one SMRO, an endorsement must be obtained from all SMROs in your state. MRF Assistant State Reps are appointed by the individual State Reps on an as-needed basis. Contact your MRF State Rep if you are interested in helping as an Assistant Rep. For additional information regarding the MRF's State Representative Program, please contact Chris Maurich, Director of State Representative Program.
