ALERT
 
TELL YOUR SENATORS TO VOTE AGAINST COMMERCIALIZATION OF HIGHWAY REST STOPS



Senator Rob Portman (R-OH) will introduce an amendment to the transportation
bill that will allow for commercial services at rest areas. Allowing state
governments to sell food, fuel and convenience items directly on the
shoulder of the highway will put businesses such as yours - that rely on
customers exiting the highway - at a major disadvantage.  
   
Allowing commercial rest areas will not increase the overall number of
hamburgers or motor fuels gallons sold, but simply transfer sales away from
your current competitive business environment to the government. Simply put,
commercializing rest areas will jeopardize your businesses, communities and
kill jobs. 

Send a letter asking your senators to Vote NO - it will only take a few
minutes.

THIS VOTE COULD COME EARLY NEXT WEEK..TAKE ACTION TODAY!
