Dear Governor Romney,

I have recently learned that FedEx plans to initiate operations at the Hanscom Field airport. As you know, Hanscom is directly adjacent to Minute Man National Historical Park and only a short distance from Walden Woods and Pond, Orchard House, and hundreds of other irreplaceable historic treasures. These places are the common heritage of all Americans and should not be damaged for the sake of corporate convenience and profit. FedEx freight trucks on the Battle Road, and FedEx jets over sensitive sites like Walden and the Old North Bridge, will have a profoundly harmful impact. I am relying on you to take action to protect this area, recently designated as one of America's 11 Most Endangered Historic Places by the National Trust for Historic Preservation. Please contact FedEx CEO Frederick W. Smith immediately and tell him that you do not want FedEx to set up operations next to Minute Man National Historical Park. Thank you very much for your attention to this important matter.

Sincerely,

Name
