DURHAM is in the big government crosshairs of NC's Tealiban legislature now...
From ProgressNC:
The hypocrisy of this state legislature is shameless. We need your help stopping it now.
Republicans in the state legislature preach smaller government. But they have seized airports in Asheville and Charlotte. They have taken Asheville's municipal water system.
Now they want to tell Durham to build a big suburban development near Jordan Lake after Durham's City Council has already said no.
Don't let state lawmakers take control of Durham's future. Write the members of the House Finance Committee tonight and tell them: if you believe in small government like you say, vote NO to 751!
The House Finance Committee could vote to ram 751 down Durham's throat as early as tomorrow -- Wednesday. We need you to act right now.
We make it easy for you. In two minutes, you can send an email to every Committee member. Just click here to get started.
Thank you,
Progress NC Action
