Support MnPASS expansion at crucial hearing
The Minnesota Legislature is facing an important decision to expand the innovative, cost-effective and popular MnPASS program to the I-35E corridor.
Residents in the east metro deserve the same choices and congestion reduction benefits that residents in the west metro currently enjoy on I-394 and I-35W.
A bill that would do that faces a key hearing in the Senate Transportation Committee at 9 a.m. Tuesday, April 17.
If you are represented by any of the following Senators along the I-35E corridor or by members of the Senate Transportation Committee, let them know that you support MnPASS as a key element to providing the greatest number of choices to all commuters.
- Sen. Roger Chamberlain, R-Lino Lakes
- Sen. Ted H. Lillie, R-Lake Elmo
- Sen. Dave Thompson, R-Lakeville
- Sen. Ray Vandeveer, R-Forest Lake
The Citizens League sent a letter to all legislators earlier this session regarding the expansion of MnPASS.
