Election Day: NY State Ballot Proposals - Question 2
QUESTION 2. Rebuild And Renew New York Transportation Bond Act of 2005—A Proposition
To promote and assure the preservation, renewal and improvement of the state’s roads and bridges; subways, trains and buses; waterways and airports; and other vital transportation systems, facilities and equipment for the benefit of the people of the state, shall section one of part I of chapter 60 of the laws of two thousand five, enacting and constituting the “REBUILD AND RENEW NEW YORK TRANSPORTATION BOND ACT OF 2005” authorizing the creation of a state debt in the amount of two billion nine hundred million dollars ($2,900,000,000) for the construction, improvement, reconditioning and preservation of transportation systems and facilities, including the acquisition of equipment, be approved?
NOTE: QUESTIONS MAY BE NUMBERED DIFFERENTLY ON THE BALLOT
Simply put: Our city and our state need improved transportation. Why do it piecemeal with backroom deals when it can be done now in a way that involves the public?
Recommendation: VOTE YES ON PROPOSAL 2
