Bowling Green, OH – Americans for Prosperity-Ohio (AFP-OH) is hosting a tailgate at the Bowling Green State University homecoming game tomorrow where activists will discuss the massive $4.7 Trillion spending package in Congress and the tremendously negative impact it will have on every segment of American life.
WHAT: AFP-OH Stop the Spending Spree Tailgate
WHO: AFP-OH
WHEN: Saturday, 2:00-5:00PM
WHERE: South End Parking Lot
Background:
In May, Americans for Prosperity launched a campaign, “End Washington Waste: Stop the Spending Spree,” to oppose the $4+ trillion combined “infrastructure” package. The campaign has so far produced more than 1.5 million letters to elected officials. The breadth of this campaign should signal to lawmakers that Americans want a better path forward. Instead, AFP has advocated an alternative approach focused on empowers individuals, families, and businesses and rebuilds physical infrastructure by:
- Preserving federal dollars for targeted construction projects of a national priority.
- Ending the practice of spending gas tax revenues on non-highway projects.
- Unleashing private investment in infrastructure assets.
- Returning power and responsibility to the states wherever possible.
- Overhauling the regulatory and permitting system to modernize infrastructure reviews and reduce project costs.
- Eliminating costly and unfair labor restrictions.
