Picture of text stating: show us what actions you can take to address congestion. Focus solutions on expanding and maximizing roadway capacity for driving. ....You may also need to recover roadway capacity from other purposes to support driving
"You may also need to recover road capacity
from other purposes to support driving." The Trump administration urges governors and mayors to take away bus lanes, bike lanes and sidewalks to support more driving. No kidding - straight from USDOT head Sean Duffy to every gov and mayor in America
It’s officially official: She’s Indy’s Zohran Mamdani, Indy’s Katie Wilson. Now we have to do the work to make sure she wins the election. We’ve got just about a year until the primary.

We need councilors like Jesse in every district. Who walk the walk & talk the talk. #VisionZero matters & we want our electeds to take it seriously
Today I introduced a joint resolution to halt all data center construction in SC.
We need a responsible, transparent plan before moving forward.
This is about getting it right.

NEWS: Huge first win for Mayor Mamdani’s tax-the-rich plans in NYC.
Mamdani just secured a deal with Gov. Hochul to create the state’s first-ever tax on $5 million+ second homes owned by ultrawealthy out-of-state residents.
Another Thomas Cook special 👀 I will say this, the 21c saga has been going on since the very end of the Ballard administration. You’d think by now this beautiful building would once again be accessible & put into productive use

A journalist with a microphone labeled “Shop Cats” is standing in front of the sales counter, and holding the mic up to a black and white cat sitting on the counter next to bananas. The cat has an expression like in the famous “Sir, are you aware that you are a cat” meme
“Sir, are you aware that you are a cat, and Mayor Zohran Mamdani is standing right behind you?”

First the city council in this Missouri city approved a $6 billion data center, despite massive pushback.
Then, during yesterday’s election in Festus, MO, residents overwhelmingly voted to kick out the incumbents who voted for the project.
America is fed up with data centers.
Mayor Mamdani chats with New Yorkers while walking the six miles from City Hall to Gracie Mansion, fulfilling the promise he made in his inauguration speech to “be outside” as Mayor — “because this is a government of New York, by New York, and for New York.”
Mamdani is not just filling the potholes with the crew. He's creating a visual and personal reminder of the dignity inherent in all of these anonymous government jobs.

Sean Duffy has changed how the secretary of transportation works with representatives of the companies he regulates—and lobbyists and corporate leaders are responding with their checkbooks, @michaelscherer.bsky.social reports:
It was approved 6-2. 💔 We’re calling this economic development? Big incentives, minimal jobs, and major impacts on a neighborhood that’s already carrying the burden. This isn’t growth, it’s extraction.
