Dulles opposition tries new way to gain attention
Steve Eldridge, The Examiner Sep 26, 2007 12:00 AM (816 days ago)WASHINGTON Those opposed to the plan to build rail to Dulles Airport and beyond are trying a new tack to get the attention and votes of local politicians. They obviously took note of the success that opponents to the abusive driver fees had when they gathered tens of thousands of signatures via an online petition. In a recent e-mail, the Dulles Corridor Users Group (DCUG) says, “We are forced to do this, of course, since the pols, who are on the take, won’t take this to the voters via a ballot measure, as is typically done in other areas of the country, despite the fact it’s the largest tax increase in Virginia history: $5 billion. Compare that with $65 million for the abusers fees.”
