Dear Governor Jon Corzine:
  Senate Members
  House of Representative Members

 I am writing to urge you not to sell or lease the New Jersey  Turnpike. Such actions would hurt the citizens of  New Jersey and turnpike  workers. By turning over the control of the turnpike to a private  corporation means surrendering future toll revenue for a short term  budget fix. To sell off the Turnpike demonstrates a lack of political   will to properly run a money making operation and accountability for employing  government resources for the good of the state. Patrick Bauer the Indiana House's Democratic leader made a perceptive point about Indiana's toll road to an Australian-Spanish partnership when he Stated: " In five maybe 10 years all the money is gone, and tolls keep raising and the money keeps flowing into foreign coffers. (Foreign Companies Buy U.S. Roads,Bridges. Associated Press 07/15/06

  No Public Official has the right to place roads and bridges that belongs to the  citizens on the open market.

 I am opposed to foreign ownership of our turnpikes, bridges and other transportation assets.


 Sincerely,
