Communities are being overburdened by the mega-warehouse boom and I see it every time I drive my kids down 206. It’s happening all over the state and that’s why @JohnFMcKeon & I introduced legislation. We have to more thoughtfully plan where these warehouses go and cut pollution.

Why is @GovMurphy offering Amazon a giant tax cut when the rest of us still ride trains that don’t work if wet leaves get near the tracks? Tell him to fund mass transit instead. Sign the petition: actionnetwork.org/petitions/…
