Good news! "Governor Albert Bryan has vetoed four bills, including a contentious zoning request for a concrete block plant on St. Croix." "He vetoed the bill based on the advisement of DPNR planners, according to Gov't House." We applaud you, Governor Bryan!

One more task! 10 Senators can override this veto. Ask our Senators to support our Governor and honor his decision on Bill #35-0023.

Here's why: "Mr. Bryan emphasized the need to consider the impact of current decisions on future generations of Virgin Islanders. He added that the DPNR is actively developing a comprehensive land and water use plan to ensure the preservation of their home for the future."

We can use AARP's "8 Domains of Livability" framework to help us create a community that is more livable (not less livable!) for people of all ages: https://www.aarp.org/livable-communities/network-age-friendly-communities/info-2016/8-domains-of-livability-introduction.html

And let's thank any Senator who agrees with Governor Bryan, Senator Marise C. James, and Senator Alma Francis-Heyliger that residential areas should NOT be rezoned for industrial activities. They've got our vote!
