Take Action This Week

 KEEP THE PRESSURE ON THE NOVEMBER 3 CANDIDATES

Election Day is coming up fast. Let’s ask the people running for statewide office where they stand on the proposed Amtrak facility at Canal Street.

Written responses are best. If you call a campaign, write down who you spoke with, the date and exactly what they told you. Then report back to the group!

CUT/PASTE MESSAGE:

Hi, I’m a resident of the area affected by Amtrak’s proposed Canal Street maintenance facility.

Do you support Amtrak locating its proposed 24/7 maintenance facility at the Canal Street Yard next to thousands of residents in Bridgeport, Armour Square and Chinatown?

We are asking candidates on the November 3 ballot to state their position before Election Day. A written response would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Got an answer from one of the candidates? Post it in the StopAmtrakBridgeport Facebook group or send it to us at stopbridgeportrailyard@gmail.com and we'll update the information here.

✅ CHECK YOUR VOTER REGISTRATION

Make sure you are registered to vote and that your address is current.

We will need to make our voices heard at the polls in November and again in March.
