Fair question.
This is The Honorable Charles Lyons, President of the National League of Cities. He is a Selectmen (comparable to our City Councilmembers) from Arlington, Massachusetts. Click his photo to see how he answered this important quesiton:
I am writing this early Monday morning. Councilmembers Jan Mosman and Phil Young and I will be heading over to the U.S. Capitol this morning to meet with Rep. Jim Ramstad’s staff and to tour the Capitol building. We also have planned stops at the offices of Sen. Norm Coleman and Sen. Mark Dayton. We will be asking all of our representatives to support a proposal to add the large improvement planned improvement project at the intersection of 494 and 169 to the Senate’s High Priority Project (HPP) list. This is an important designation for this project to be eligible for additional federal funding.
I’ll let you know how it went…..
