It goes by a few different names like TTC, Trans-Texas Corridor and the North America Corridor, which just spells out NAU, North American Union. Looks like Texas is rolling over, just like it does on everything else, so I hope Oklahoma can cut it off.

Here Colleen:
FactCheck.org: Wrong Paul
Here techienomad:
NAFTA bill killed in the Senate
I didn't even know this old chestnut was still around... but if you wanna jump in head first, here ya go: SuperHighway Home Have fun.
The whole "idea" was spawned (for the most part) from these two items:
SPP Myths vs Facts
North America's SuperCorridor Coalition, Inc.
Mmmkay buhbye!

I'm still an Advocate with ALIPAC. I not only fight Illegal Immigration, but I'm an advocate against NAFTA aka NAU, because they're connected.

OMG, I really hope OK will oppose this. Back home in Texas, our gov has continued to shove the NAFTA superhighway otherwise known as the Trans Texas Corridor heavily. Its going to be a mile wide $50 billion boondoogle. I'm all for progress but I am very against this because its literally going to rip the heart out of several communities along I-35 and not to mention it will destroy more farmland and encourage useless urban sprawl. Not to mention it will be a lovely corridor for illegal aliens and shipments to zoom right into the US (and trust me it will given Texas's hands-off policy towards immigration). Just great  !
You can read all about this gem. Trans-Texas Corridor - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. It will concern Oklahoma since it will dump right into OK on the Red River boundary.

Ane if anyone know how we can oppose it please email us. I oppose this. Just what we need. Mexico truckers delivery our goods and put our truckers out of business I guess. What gives with both parties in our government. They are all in favor of this nafta stuff which as one can tell hasn't been too good for us. I did hear Texas was infavor of nafta. Why!!!!!!!
