The @chicagotribune is reporting that a PART bill to consolidate Chicago-area transit agencies will be introduced in Springfield as early as this week, courtesy of @DelgadoRep and @senvillivalam chicagotribune.com/2024/04/29/cta…
Big thanks to everyone who came out to ride the far Northwest Side today! Better infrastructure can improve safety for all road users, no matter how you get around 🚶🚲🚍🚗 #bikechi @bikegridnow @unitednwside @JeffParkForward @ChiFamilyBiking @LaPointefor19 @AlderwomanCruz
I waited just 3min for the blue line from Jeff Park➡️Logan on a Saturday 🛤️ Then just 2min wait for my return train. 10 minute ride and I’ll be home in no time. No circling for parking, no traffic When transit works - it works! I just wish it worked well all the time
Huge turnout at the public transit town hall today! People are fired up about creating a transit system that is more reliable, affordable, safe, and accessible. Thank you @senvillivalam @graciela4senate @DelgadoRep for your vision & leadership

Pleaseeeee take this today also. Today’s the last day to answer IDOT’s survey on state transit priorities: idot.click/kli It’s short!
‼️ Major win‼️ After years of litigation and grassroots organizing, today, the @EPA issued the CCR Surface Impoundment Rule, extending federal monitoring and cleanup requirements to hundreds of previously excluded inactive, older coal ash landfills and ponds…⬇️
if no new taxes are being issued for this, that means some other government spending will have to be cut to pay for it, which is even worse. i’m not accepting reduced government services because of the fucking bears

Public transportation is a powerful tool against climate change. Your impact of choosing to ride public transit over driving is much bigger than you think. 🌎
“It's never a bad choice to go for a bike ride and spend a day just out riding. You're gonna meet great new friends or just have a good time to yourself to just think and take in the city. I love it. And yeah, everybody get out there and ride.”
Gov. J.B. Pritzker says ‘evolution of leadership’ needed at CTA. His comments come as state lawmakers are weighing recommendations about Chicago-area transit funding and whether the CTA should be consolidated with the region’s other transit agencies chicagotribune.com/2024/04/19/pri…
As people living in the US, a direct local climate action we can be take today is to vastly expand housing supply to support new migrants, several of whom are climate refugees. Or we can keep railing against “fossil fuel capitalists” and pat ourselves on the back for our ethics.

“If we can’t even track our emissions from transportation, we certainly can’t do anything about it. What are 53 members of the Senate so afraid that the public might learn?” @BethOsborneT4A ohiocapitaljournal.com/briefs/democra…

Trans Kansans: here’s 100s first hand accounts and 100s of studies and the opposition statements from every major medical association about how harmful this anti-trans bill is #ksleg: you all *know* I don’t want to harm anyone but I’m going to vote for this anti-trans bill 🤮
I’m sure this is just a joke, but our public spaces need to be welcoming to families. In church we say if your church ain’t crying, it’s dying. The same exact concept applies to our city.

According to IDOT, the most heavily-trafficked section of 6-lane Upper Wacker Drive sees an average of 16,100 daily cars. That's 10k fewer cars than 4-lane Western Ave between North and Fullerton. And there are many such examples. Wacker needs to get whacked! (i.e. get PBLs)
