Your Tax Dollars Help Promote Mark Olson's PRT Boondoggle

The Living Green Expo is sponsored by the State of Minnesota.

This year the Citizens for Personal Rapid Transit (CPRT) will be at the Living Green Expo. They are not "green" at all, but an anti-transit front organization that promotes Olson's PRT boondoggle.

Last year the CPRT broke IRS law by electioneering on behalf of Dean Zimmermann and other PRT-promoting candidates. I picked up this flyer for Representative Mark Olson at a CPRT meeting in Saint Louis Park a while back:

I heard that the Dean Zimmermann was at the CPRT booth last year arguing with a transit advocate. It would be interesting if Zimmermann volunteers at the CPRT table this year.

It's outrageous that the State of Minnesota and other sponsors like Aveda and the Alliance for Sustainability are helping to give Mark Olson's boondoggle credibility during an election year.

Please complain about this...addresses and phone numbers here.
