No Marlins Bailout!
The Coalition Against Marlins Bailout is against the Baseball Stadium Agreements that will be voted on by the City of Miami Commission on Thursday, March 19th and by the Miami-Dade County Board of County Commissioners on Monday, March 23rd. Our Coalition of community organizations and citizens is resolved to fight against what we believe is an irresponsible business deal that has been negotiated by our County government on our behalf. These negotiations were held behind closed doors with little to no transparency and the bottom line is that the "deal" is bad for the taxpayers of Miami-Dade County. We realize that many of us like baseball. However, we also know that most of us are not in favor of corporate welfare. This is not a choice of whether we like baseball or not. This is a choice of what is best for our entire community. The Baseball Stadium Agreements that were drafted by the Marlins attorneys with taxpayer dollars are completely one-sided in favor of a private, for-profit business. If you have had enough of this kind of corporate welfare let your voice be heard and sign this petition!
