New York State – Montgomery County Meeting

June 16th, 2008 . by JM

Dear Friend,

As the state rep for the OOU Inc., I would like to share a personal story and invite you to cover our event. We are a group spread out nationwide with a common goal to help the trucking industry, consumers and our neighbors who are struggling with the high cost of fuel.

The New York OOU chapter began with one trucker and one assemblyman hosting a roundtable event in Montgomery County aiming to get our message out, organize and ultimately better inform local truckers of the challenges we face in these tough times. It has now grown into a state wide out cry for our state government to rein in overspending and eliminate unnecessary taxes, most notably the “Ton-Mile Tax”. We have worked tirelessly to build support in the State Legislature and have been encouraged by the outpouring of support in communities across the state. We have begun to engage supporters through informative events, petition drives, phone banks, voter registration drives and rally’s.

We expect attendance at our June 19th, rally to be tremendous and will include assembly members, senators, school district officials, firemen, first responders, highway superintendents who are all coming out to say no more, a change is coming in NY. Our friends and neighbors are tired of feeling like no one is listening. On behalf of the many supporters from across the state, thank you for your time and consideration.

For more information about the June 19th. rally, please do not hesitate to contact me at (518) 810-1776, to obtain an event flyer.

Sincerely,
Charles Claburn
New York State Rep. / Owner Operators United Inc.
