Programs: Worked to build public and legislative support for a new bridge across the columbia river (the crossing) through public relations efforts:1) engaged a public relations firm to help secure public support and illustrate that support to federal and state legislators. Efforts included visiting with reporters and editorial boards, writing op-eds and speaking to the public. 2) continued developing a list of potential supporters whose names may be used as evidence of suppport of the crossing in order to develop even more widespread support from legislators and the public. 3) continued to maintain a website to educate and inform supporters and the public about the coalition and the crossing project. 4) continued publishing a newsletter to provide information and education to supporters and potential supporters of the crossing.
