I used a car in #Portland today, to go about 11-12 miles and back... does anybody think it might be worth some #congestionPricing to make it so people driving could reliably average over 15mph? No? "Just jam every street full of cars until nothing works, and repeat again daily until the rapture […]

Reminder that both the #Oregon #Transportation commission *and* the #Portland #transit agency board are appointed by #orDems Governor who is running unopposed in the primary.

Have #orDems got someone in the primary to replace this useless corporate prop of a governor or are they just going to lose the seat. Dems can't win by shredding stuff that works to make tax cuts for the rich. GTFO

@brenttoderian.bsky.social The problem with countering the argument about "subsidizing bike lanes" is that #transportation departments keep claiming they can't build bike infrastructure without more money, when all they need to do is cut car infrastructure spending to the level that drivers […]

Well #orDems have "kept the lights on" at ODOT, at the expense of basically everyone else or the governor winning re-election. From The Street Trust: “Don’t call it a package - this deal kicks the #transportation funding can down the road while leaving the most vulnerable Oregonians behind.” […]

screenshot from the article: highlighting "we end up negotiating with the car dealers" We voted on a really solid bill, got it out of committee, and then had a significant amount of pushback from within Democratic part of the legislature, and had to negotiate that down. We still had a decent bill coming out of that — no greenhouse gas reductions — but certainly some good safety investments and moving the needle on, catching back up, but not nearly what it should have been. So we negotiate with the handful of Dems, get something that they can live with. And we end up negotiating with the car dealers so that they don’t refer it to the ballot, and we finally land on something that, while it’s not awesome, starts to move the needle on some of those things. Then we didn’t have the votes in the Senate to get it out.

#orDems handling of their own Billionaire Benefits Bill on #transportation makes federal dems seem competent by comparison. Gamba is one of the good ones but trying to raise revenue to prop up the carway system is a lost cause. We need to quit imagining car […]

What's happening? The bill with our hard-fought wins is being ignored in favor of a new bill, HB 3402, which ONLY PROVIDES MINIMAL FUNDING FOR ODOT FOR HIGHWAYS! If we don't show THIS AFTERNOON, lawmakers will think they can ignore the needs of Oregonians' who can't or don't drive and our demands to prevent traffic deaths. This is unacceptable - please sign up to OPPOSE HB 3402 this afternoon. SIGN UP TO TESTIFY VIRTUALLY TODAY AT 3:45PM

#PreschoolForAll actually is working. Every other public child care program is being slashed (ERDC, Preschool Promise, Head Start). #ORDems caving to wealthy taxpayers is what we’ve been fighting against. Killing this program will only hurt working families. Why Dems keep losing elections. #ORPol

What a great rally! Thousands of Oregonians have let it be known that No King has a place in America.

With dems like these... #ORpol #orDems #CarBrain #CarSupremacy

Car use costs more per mile than drivers pay. The plan is to gradually make drivers pay more, but drivers still won't be paying full price even then. 🙃 No plans to stop the bleeding. And of course #ClimateDenial […]
