Results of the stop sign protest went exactly as expected.

Nice new article on "Why cyclists should be able to roll through stop signs and ride through red lights"

Presents the usual energy conservation basics, precedence, and that the laws were designed for cars, then further suggests it would be safer.

That's disappointing. It's not going to stop being controversial if no one will make the case for it.

Is your draft law available online anywhere?

My sense is that they would support it in theory, but that at this time it is too controversial and would have little chance of gaining political support.

Why is there no support from ATA?

I drafted a proposed "stop as yield law" at the request of Active Trans. They asked me for anything I'd like to see become part of the city's bicycle safety ordinance that was passed this summer.  That was on my wish list.  However, it was not submitted.  At the moment, there is no support at Active Trans or the City for such a law.  But we should continue to advocate for it.  It's coming. . . some day.

Given the recent trend towards more stop sign stings, I'd agree that it's time to start working on this again.  I'd favor the idea of starting with a petition to ATA and LIB - gather signatures and demonstrate the level of support for such a law.
