Proposed Plan for Highway Expansion Moves Forward
An online presentation is open for you to learn about Governor Hogan's proposed expansion of 270 and 495, two highways in the Washington Metropolitan area.

They are placing policies that ignore science and weaken protections for our land, air, and water before people. Even after 10 years of working with the Minnesota Legislature, I shouldn’t be surprised when I see legislators putting special interests and corporate profits first – and yet, I am.
