Sign Petition -- Gov. Brown: Do Not Veto Funds for SW Capitol Highway Project

[Dan Meek]

Go to Change.org to sign This Petition for Gov. Brown not to Veto Funds for SW Capitol Highway Project.

Governor Kate Brown has stated her intent to "line item veto" $2 million approved by the Oregon Legislature for the SW Capitol Highway Project between Multnomah Village and Taylor's Ferry Road in SW Portland.

We need to sign this petition immediately, as Gov. Brown can issue the veto any day now. It takes about one minute to sign it online.

This project has been identified as a top neighborhood priority since 1996. It would add a continuous sidewalk and protected bike lane on the east side and a multi-use path on the west side, along with updated crossings, better bus stops, and other elements. It is supported by the local neighborhood associations.

It is bizarre that Gov. Brown would choose to veto this project, out of hundreds being funded around the state. It also seems like a slap in the face to the 4 legislators whose districts include this stretch of SW Capitol Highway:

• Rep.Marga...@oregonlegislature.gov
• Sen.Ginn...@oregonlegislature.gov
• Rep.Ann...@oregonlegislature.gov
• Sen.Rich...@oregonlegislature.gov

Please also forward this email to other Oregonians.
