Do we get to vote on toll roads? NO.

Recent news articles are leading some people to believe that a new bill - HB 2702 will allow us to vote if a road becomes a toll road or a free road. That is not the case.

HB 2702 does nothing for Central Texas and other communities around the State that have our freeways being shifting to toll roads. Krusee and Staples created HB2702, and thier very limited definition of "conversion" does not apply to the toll roads here in Central Texas, even though many of them are 100% funded with gas tax dollars.

Also, any projects that were approved before the September 1, 2005 also don't count.

HB 2702 does nothing for Central Texas. It's certainly dressed up to look good, and has tricked a few media outlets. Don't be fooled.

What we need to do: Work together and FIRE the "looters" like Perry, Krusee, Wynn, Barientos, Sonlietner and more in every future election. Call Linda to volunteer at our Austin Toll Party office. We've got a lot of work to do: 371-9926
