New Jersey Motorsports Park – Thunderbolt Raceway

[Nick]

[size=3]The final hurdle for Thunderbolt Raceway is to see Governor Corzine sign the Sports and Entertainment District legislation (Bill # A 1054) that has been approved in the NJ Assembly and not yet heard in the senate economic growth committee and the full senate. The bill needs to be signed by Governor Corzine in December for NJMP to break ground in Feb-March 2007.

Assemblyman Jeff Van Drew, the leading sponsor of A 1054 has asked that we all respectfully contact Senator Ray Lesniak, who holds the keys to the senate approval of the bill. Senator Lesniak chairs the senate economic growth committee, and he must agree to hearing the unaltered version of the assembly bill A 1054 in his committee and release the bill to the full senate, where Senate President Codey must agree to place the bill for a full senate vote.

Senator Lesniak can be contacted as follows:

senlesniak@njleg.org

telephone: 908 624 0880

He resides in Union, NJ and is an attorney. He is quite familiar with the legislation, so please either e-mail him or call his staff to voice your support and desire for the Senator to move this bill as soon as possible, so Governor Corzine can sign the bill in December.

Please take a moment from your day to contact the senator. Please spread the word. If each of us makes contact with him, it will surely make a difference.
