The Standardbred Breeders & Owners Association of New Jersey is asking New Jerseyans to call the Governor's Office of Constituent Relations, starting today

.

The number is 609-777-2500.

You are asked to call as often as you can with a brief, respectful comment, expressing your concerns about the future of the horse racing industry in New Jersey.

If applicable, you might mention that you are a taxpayer and landowner who will have to sell and move out of the state if racing does not survive and thrive in New Jersey.

Be patient as it may take a while to get through due to the volume of calls.
