Crossing Georgia

Adam Pagnucco of Crossing Georgia sent me the following news:

Last night, the Crossing Georgia committee made its case before the Maryland state senators and delegates in a well-coordinated presentation in which we outnumbered the ICC and the Purple Line forces combined!

Ten residents - FECA President Shawn Marie Jarosz, Doug Goldenberg-Hart, Bob Bock, Oscar Sodani (webmaster of our site), Maida Schifter, Carla Kish, Joe Davidson, John Howley, Mike Ravnitzky and me, along with Eileen Cahill of Holy Cross Hospital, testified about the horrors of crossing Georgia at Forest Glen and the need for a new Metro entrance. The project has the support of the Montgomery County Executive, a majority of the County Council and the entire District 18 state delegation.
You can see photos of the Crossing Georgia committee with all the members of the District 18 delegation, Delegates Jane Lawton, Ana Sol Gutierrez, and Jeff Waldstreicher and Senator Rich Madaleno, at http://www.crossinggeorgia.org/content/view/126/9/
