Just before a legislative session begins inside the Texas State Capitol. AUSTIN --
A legislator from San Antonio has filed a bill to kill G-O-P Gov. Rick Perry's Trans-Texas Corridor toll road proposal.
Perry spokesman Robert Black today said the governor will fight the anti-corridor measure.

Democratic Representative David Liebowitz says his bill would take away the Texas Department of Transportation's authority to buy land and do contracts for the project.

Liebowitz told W-O-A-I radio that the Trans-Texas Corridor would "destroy rural Texas as we know it."

But Black says we face a serious issue in transportation infrastructure in Texas.

Black says you have to "think outside the box and come up with solutions," which the spokesman says is what the governor has done.

Perry in 2002 proposed the Trans-Texas Corridor as a four-thousand mile transportation network using toll roads and rail systems.

Now is the time Texans, stand up and fight this with every thing you have!! the rest of the country cannot help you in your own state. STOP !! The North American Union in its tracks.

REMEMBER THE ALAMO!!!!!!
