VOTE! VOTE! VOTE!

***RI voters******, vote YES on 2:


Question 2 - the Open Space and Recreation Development Bond - will set
aside $2.5 million (over the next five years) to protect natural
spaces, farms, and state parks from developers. For every $1 set aside
by the state, RI will recieve $3-$4 in matching funds from the federal
gov't, foundations, and rich people. The bond will generate $10
million to preserve Rhode Island's environment. If you are a fan of
local agriculture, this bond is critical to its survival.

The bond must pass or these important preservation programs will end
in Rhode Island. OVER. NADA. NOTHING. DONE. At least for another few
years.

So, if the bond passes, the state only has to set aside $500,000 per
year to save farms, open space, watersheds, shorelines, state parks.
If the bond does not pass, no money will be set aside to protect RI
farmers or to preserve our state's natural resources, and we get NONE
of the matching funds from Washington.
