Stop Toll Roads Thru-Out U.S.
I have stated that We, the People will forever have to fight against toll road special interests and against individual state contracts with foreign toll road building companies.
Here we go again…
This has been an ongoing battle and it needs to stop. Tell your Federal and State Senators and House Reps. that you don’t want endless toll roads.
Tell them to please support the Hutchison ban on tolling existing STATE and FEDERAL freeways and to STRIP PPPs & TIFIA loans OUT of the transportation bill .
It is time to do what is best for the community good and NOT only for the special interest good. Greed and corruption continue to dominate in Congress. It is time to stop permitting it to happen.
Say “No!!” to toll roads and road partnerships with foreign companies. Tell your representatives to say “No!!”
Why can’t we ever learn from our previous mistakes? Why can’t we get smart?

Hello fellow advocates,
We need your help spreading the word about the anti-taxpayer federal highway bill coming before Congress this week. It’s going to take a Texas-sized uproar to STOP Congress from selling off our infrastructure to foreign entities like Cintra (same playbook as the Trans Texas Corridor), from borrowing more money from the Federal Reserve to lend to states to prop-up toll roads that can’t pay for themselves, and from imposing tolls on existing FREEways in ALL 50 states! Considering what’s at stake, this should be THE topic on talk radio this week.
If you have contacts outside Texas, we need their help in spreading the word to the grassroots across America about this horrible highway bill dubbed the American Energy & Infrastructure Jobs Act. For those outside Texas, they need to edit the email slightly to have people contact their own U.S. Senators instead of Cornyn as directed. The email and details are below. Call if you have any questions. You have my sincere thanks!
I think the best time to send it out is Sunday afternoon so it’s in folks’ inboxes by Monday morning when we need calls to start.
In Liberty,
– Terri
