“This is black helicopter material”.
The 400 yd. wide highway is in the works in Texas now. After extensive hearings throughout the affected region drew large heated protests, the State Legislature passed a law to delay any new state tollroads for two years so that they could study the matter further. This passed with a veto proof majority close to the end of the session. Gov. Rick “Goodhair” Perry (R-Mexico) waited until the Legislature adjourned for two years and then vetoed the Bill. (Gov. Goodhair was reelected last year with 39% of the vote in a 4 way race).
This is for real. Highways, railroad tracks, pipelines and utility ROW all in one massive ROW that will destroy small rural communties, scar the landscape, divide Couties (There is limited overpasses and acess) and no telling how much environmental damage.
Ironically, the same people who decry the Border Fence for it’s supposed environmental damage approve this monstrosity.
Welcome to the NAU!
The lege passed two different moratoria on public-private partnerships. Rick Perry vetoed the stronger version while the lege was still in session, and he signed the weaker version into law after the lege adjourned.
