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. <br> <br>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. <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:14.0pt;font-family:"Cambria","serif"'>Send a letter asking your senators to Vote NO — it will only take a few minutes.<br><br>THIS VOTE COULD COME EARLY NEXT WEEK….TAKE ACTION TODAY!<br><a href="http://email.nacsonline.com/redir.asp?src=actionalert_030212&url=http://www.votervoice.net/Groups/NACS/Advocacy/?IssueID=27808&SiteID=-1" target="_blank">Click Here</a> to access the NACS Grassroots website to send a pre-drafted letter.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:14.0pt;font-family:"Cambria","serif"'><a href="http://www.votervoice.net/Core/core.aspx?APP=GAC&AID=1455&IssueID=27808&SiteID=-1">http://www.votervoice.net/Core/core.aspx?APP=GAC&AID=1455&IssueID=27808&SiteID=-1</a><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:14.0pt'><span style='font-size:14.0pt;font-family:"Cambria","serif"'><br>Thank you for your support of this important issue.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:14.0pt;font-family:"Cambria","serif"'>Sincerely,<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:14.0pt;font-family:"Cambria","serif"'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:14.0pt;font-family:"Cambria","serif"'>Kevan Worley<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:14.0pt;font-family:"Cambria","serif"'>Executive Director- National Association of Blind Merchants<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:14.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif"'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:14.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif"'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div></body></html>
