We may need a stronger message to the governor reminding him we are also <BR/>mass taxpayers.<BR/><BR/>and when is the fall river "town meeting" ???<BR/><BR/>and see this article:<BR/><BR/><BR/><BR/>By DAVID KIBBE<BR/>Standard-Times staff writer<BR/>September 19, 2007 6:00 AM<BR/>BOSTON — James J. Karam is back on the UMass Board of Trustees, one year after being ousted as chairman of the board by former Gov. Mitt Romney following a contentious battle for a public law school on the SouthCoast.<BR/><BR/>Mr. Karam was reappointed Tuesday by Gov. Deval Patrick. It came a little more than a year after Mr. Romney failed to reappoint him to a second five-year term on the board.........Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5011463182147161614.post-76659066955063927772008-07-10T17:43:00.000-04:002008-07-10T17:43:00.000-04:00I e-mailed Gov.

I let him know that I was one of the 7,561 voters whose voices were ignored by our mayor.<BR/><BR/>Ironically, after reading the HN article announcing the passage of the petition I turned the page and saw Correia's new hierarchy of city authority in the HN "reshuffling" article. He had the condescening audacity to put "The people of Fall River" at the top of the ladder even above his highness himself.
