good news

Dear Anti-LNG Campaign members,

=20

CONGRATULATIONS!!! Governor Christie has officially vetoed the Liberty
Natural Gas project! After nearly four years of hard work, we have seen
the end of 3 LNG projects for now. Thank you to all of you for your
efforts in making this possible. =20

Please go to this link to find our press release and the Governor's
letter and press release on the veto:

Despite the Governor's letter, the Coast Guard is still moving ahead
with the hearings. It is important that everyone still attends and
encourages others to attend as well. Have your testimony ready to go
and bring copies with you if you can.

Remember to thank the Governor and the DEP Commissioner, Bob Martin:

determines that more time is needed to allow everyone to be heard). We
advise you to get there early to get parking and a seat! Our website
has an RSVP form and other information about the hearings, project, and
LNG in general if people want to use that as a resource,

Congratulations again! :-)
