What is also super important more critical is if you can help drive people to a survey we've created, that would be most appreciated. The survey is only 5 questions, really fast to complete, and basically provides a bit of information and asks people what they'd like to know more about. To check it out, go here.

This is very important for us. Please show your support for transit on Wednesday, March 25.

This is from the Coalition for Advancing Transit (C.A.T.) on how you can get involved to show your support:

Governor Doyle’s proposed state budget is now in the hands of the Joint Committee on Finance. We're asking members, partners and supporters of (C.A.T.) to send testimonials/letters of support and show up on March 25th so they know that the time to address the challenges facing transit in SE WI is NOW!

The hearing runs from 10:00AM to 4:00PM and begins with remarks by local elected officials.
Join us from 9:30-11:00AM – we will gather all C.A.T. members and supporters as a large group so they see the wide array of support for transit in SE WI. C.A.T. Steering Committee Chair, Tom Rave of The Gateway to Milwaukee, will also read a prepared statement/testimony on behalf of the Coalition at some point during the hearing.

Wednesday, March 25, 2009 9:30 AM to 11:00 AM
State Fair Park Tommy Thompson Center, Banquet Room #2
640 S. 84th Street, West Allis, WI 53214
