Please sign our petition to Governor Charlie Crist asking him to VETO the raid of the State Transporation Trust Fund.
The Florida Legislature passed a raid of $160 million of STTF funds to help balance the state budget. This raid will cause vital construction projects to drop out of the FDOT 5-year plan and cost thousands of Florida jobs.
Ask the Governor to VETO all sweeps to transportation funding and Save Florida Jobs.

The Legislature is trying to gamble with our jobs and we are nearly at 1,000 signatures to stop this theft. Blast this link to everyone you know right now so we can hit that mark before Governor Crist ignores us.

Fix the roads first.
Ridiculous. We need these jobs and these repairs. Balance the budget somewhere else.
Total incompetence. Keep the money in the trust fund where it belongs.
VETO THIS. Why do we keep letting them treat the trust fund like a personal piggy bank??
Stop taking money meant for roads and using it for other stuff. Infrastructure is crumbling enough as it is.
