Omission

In the Apr. 2 issue of The Aggie, the article “Government rewards people who bike to work,” failed to mention that the $20 bike-to-work voucher is not available to UC Davis employees. The act passed by Congress only applied to employers who pay federal corporate taxes. Since the University of California does not pay federal corporate taxes, UC employees cannot receive this tax benefit. Furthermore, UC has not indicated that it would be willing to use its own funds to subsidize bike commuters. The Aggie regrets the omission.
