Flyering Squads hit the streets
to shoot down Props 1 & 9

- GOV. PERRY'S UNLIMITED TAX, DEBT
& TRANS TEXAS CORRIDOR SCHEMES

Austin, TX, October 21, 2005 - TexasToll Party.com (like the Boston Tea Party) will launch flyering squads of volunteers at intersections across Austin this Saturday at 11:00 am to urge the defeat of two key propositions to support Gov. Perry's plans to privatize and toll public highways and fund his unpopular Trans Texas Corridor. Texas constitutional amendments, Prop 1 & 9, will be on the ballot starting Monday, in this upcoming election and will open the door for unlimited taxes, limitless debt, the mammoth 4,000 mile toll road known as the Trans Texas Corridor, and the unpopular "double-tax" urban tolls.

Prop 1 rail fund opens the door to unlimited tax and debt - for Texans to fund privately owned rail in the $200 billion Trans Texas Corridor. Proposition 9 will break the Texas constitution's term limitations for unelected board members to the new regional "toll authorities" - who will set the tolls on roads we've already paid for - extending terms from 2 years to 6 years.

What: Volunteer Flyering Squads to Derail Prop 1 & Bust Prop 9
Who: Grassroots TexasTollParty.com volunteers
When: 11:00 a.m. on Saturday, October 22, 2005
Where: Oak Hill at the Y, Mopac & Parmer, 71 & Burlson and more...
