Governor Corzine, let the citizens of New Jersey enjoy their parks!
Hi Brian,
Last Wednesday, the steps of the Trenton State House were the scene of a concrete camp-out — over 300 people rallied to save our state parks from Gov. Corzine’s budget cuts.
The same day, the Governor’s staff was testifying to the Legislature, saying the Governor supports “passive recreation” at the nine state parks targeted for closure. But they would still ban swimming and camping. The next day, the Governor proposed corporate sponsorship for state parks.
So, we’re starting to have an impact. But the Governor still doesn’t get it — New Jersey state parks should not be only partially open or sold to the highest bidder.
The Legislature is starting to get the message. Make sure your state senator holds the line on keeping all of our state parks open.
