NoGItolls Supports call to Eliminate Thruway Authority.

With the recent toll increase and the blatant disregard the Board at the Thruway Authority has shown to the People of Western New York, the Governor, Senate and Assembly, it is past time to eliminate this huge bureaucracy.

It has become overly apparent that the Thruway Authority does what they do because they feel they can with no repercussions from the politicians in Albany. Now it the time to stand up and take control of the system that has become a bigger and bigger drag on the economy of this state.


We are being told to conserve on fuel, we do and we get punished for doing so. Increasing the Tolls will force more truckers out of business or force them to drive around New York State. High tolls along with extremely high fuel costs are driving up the costs of everything we purchase at the stores. Food and clothing will and are being affected.

This is the time to cut tolls, cut taxes and ease the burden on the taxpayers and toll payers across the state of New York. We ask you ALL to show your support, sign the petition at noGItolls.com, call your Assemblymen and Senators and tell them that we are tired of these unaccountable, unelected Authorities who are forcing us to pay more for everything. I just sent this message to Governor Paterson at this link, please send him one too.

The time is NOW to stand up and take action, it will not get done without your help.

Thank you
