General Talking Points
- I oppose expanding I-35 through Austin.
- Please do not vote for any Transportation Improvement Plan (TIP) that includes I-35 expansion.
- There are better uses for our transportation dollars than highway expansions.
- Austin City Council has asked CAMPO to pause funding on this project.
- The Austin area already exceeds the threshold considered safe for pollutants like fine particulate matter. This will make our air worse.
