Governor Pawlenty stripped away some serious pork from a massive DFL Bonding Bill April 7. Download and read the Governor's line-item veto letter and you'll see some enlightening DFL priorities over transportation and infrastructure:
In addition, this bill reflects misplaced priorities. As just one

band music lending library and yet provide no funding for a much needed
new nursing facility at the Minneapolis Veterans Home.
Then, contact the Governor to thank him:
