Info from @withouthousing on the Grants Pass case and the fight!
Cities across the country are holding rallies on the day the Supreme Court is hearing arguments in the Grants Pass case, with potential to expand criminalization of unhoused folks. City of LA asked Trump's Supreme Court for "judicial clarity" around violating 8th amendment 1/2

@klahrinc @headwaysmatter Also the Twenty-eight x '28/Olympic tranist project was DOA, pre-COVID. We're not going to get any meaningful transit out of #LA28. In fact, the opposite is much more likely. nolympicsla.com/faq
In the past year, we've all watched as every Garcetti project has failed - from his earthquake app, to Heather Repenning's failed run, to his embarrassing aborted presidential campaign, to 28 x '28, Vision Zero, etc. Everything he touches turns to shit. x.com/nolympicsla/st…

Q: Won’t the Olympics improve public transit? A: Not really. Transit expansion and the LA Olympic bid have been unfairly conflated for years. The reality is a lot bleaker than the Twenty-eight x '28 press releases.
And here's one we keep getting, despite reality: -LA2028 will bring us much needed transit expansion and investment (28 x '28 is a another Garcetti's signature overpromising; LA2028 will actually deprioritize transit expansion we need and create new, unnecessary problems).
Today at 4:30pm we're joining organizers and residents of Long Beach as their City Council starts discussing the 8 x 28 project. Remember when @LA2028 promised us "no new construction"? Welp. presstelegram.com/2018/01/16/lon…
Surprise, surprise. Garcetti's hastily slapped together 28 x '28 plan is a fucking nightmare.
Surprise, surprise. Garcetti's hastily slapped together 28 x '28 plan is a fucking nightmare.
The 28 x 28 "Plan" is no plan at all. The 2028 Olympics were sold as a boon for transit development, but it's all bullshit. Poor people's transit needs will be deprioritized as the city scrambles to meet these absurd, contrived projections. #LA2028 viterbischool.usc.edu/news/2019/07/t…
"Politicians in L.A. often spend their political capital on big, flashy construction projects like rail lines, rather than using their energy and urgency to advocate for better, basic bus service. Just look at Garcetti’s 28 by 28 initiative" #28x28 latimes.com/opinion/story/…
The U.N. High Commissioner just cited 28x28 as an example of how L.A. is planning to make public transit accessible as it prepares ro host the Olympics. Who wants to tell her what’s really going to happen? #StandUp4HumanRights #GarcettiVille

100% convinced that the best thing to ever happen to NYC was losing the 2012 Olympics bid. We upzoned much of the west side (and LIC, iirc?), got the Flushing Meadows Natatorium built, and avoided all the other headaches that come with actually hosting the Olympics.

75,000 sleep on the streets of LA County and for some reason we're about to spend 1 billion dollars on temporary busses to host the Olympics. 6 people die every day on the streets and we're going to spend billions to host some games.

No Olympics in Los!
The 2028 Olympics in Los Angeles will be a disaster. “Officials are trying to figure out how to pay more than $1 billion to run buses that will probably disappear after the Games.” The city is already facing a budget crisis, the Olympics will only exacerbate that.
@PplsCityCouncil @NOlympicsLA I was hopeful even that this ramp up would yield infra that would be long lasting. At least some of the metro line expansions will be great. But also re olympics and its international rep:
@NOlympicsLA And all of the busses will be battery oper....er...EVs which will need to be charged every few hours (assuming they don't catch fire like the London EV busses)
The N🚫LYMPIC movement is constituted in so many struggles — against transnational corruption, Reaganite capitalism, homelessness and cultures of abuse — but it’s also a very fulfilling and succinct way to say that liars are the worst
A billion dollars for a temporary bus fleet because your 20 billion dollar plan for rail proved to be fictitious, and also the billion dollars certainly won’t be enough and no one is going to give it to you anyway. latimes.com/california/sto…
@NOlympicsLA This page could be created for Paris, LA, and here in Brisbane too. It's all the media talks about down here, with a new stadium being debated despite housing stress and rising homelessness... brisbanetimes.com.au/national/queen…

Would be cool to see any of the progressive politicians call out the massive waste of time and money for the Olympics. How many units could be expropriated for public housing with the “billions of dollars” that will be spent on extra buses for two weeks?
