I-95 and Traffic are on the Ballot
Time for a Federal Solution - Vote Goldstein for Congress this November
Last Night, I went to support some local candidates State Senator Ryan Fazio and State Rep Candidate Tina Courpas at the Round Hill Community Center.
One of the largest subjects at last night’s debate and one that we encounter were Traffic and Electric Rates. Traffic on I-95 and the needed Metro North upgrades are mainly federally funded (about 80 percent) and there needs to be a stronger partnership between state and federal government which has been ignored by Jim Himes since he took office.
As you sit in traffic (during the normal work week), Blame Jim Himes.
When you run a business and have to travel between clients and customers and have add an extra hour for leeway - Blame Jim Himes.
When you are late to tuck you children in bed at night because of traffic - Blame Jim Himes
Jim is responsible for federal funding in this corridor and all federal funds run to Hartford and interchanges that do not help the economic engine of this state - Fairfield County.
This speech I recently gave above sums up Jim - No improvements for I-95 in 16 Years.
Simple short-term solutions like moveable barriers will help especially in Stamford and Norwalk and longer exit ramps so that 3 lanes do not go to 2 just for those trying to get off the roads.
I will let the video speak today. But if you are stuck in traffic - Blame Jim Himes
Vote for me on November 5th with Early Voting October 21 - November 3 and I will work to improve I-95 and Metro North and help lower electric bills.
Sharing is Caring - so if you like the message please pass it on.
Thank you for your continued support.
