I personally do not care one bit whether or not Dorval Carter likes the Metropolitan Mobility Authority Act. His opinion of how transit should be governed is so beyond irrelevant. We must fund transit, but money is not the sole problem. We need #RevenuesAndReform.
In case anyone's concerned about a suburban coup that'd tank the MMA, they would be explicitly tasked with "increasing ridership and passenger miles on public transportation funded by the Authority" as part of the required 5-year Strategic Plans, among other positive goals
Lawmakers propose unifying CTA, Metra and Pace chicagobusiness.com/politics/illin…
We were proud to stand alongside @senvillivalam, @DelgadoRep, and a broad coalition of transportation, environmental, civic, and community organizations today as they announced the introduction of the Metropolitan Mobility Authority Act.
“This is so far from a progressive priority as to be laughable,” State Rep. Kelly Cassidy said. “There is not a case to be made to me that would ever compel me to give a billionaire more money. … This thing is dead in the water.” chicagotribune.com/2024/04/28/chi…
After months of praying, hoping, and searching, hundred of Palestinian families found their loved ones in mass graves. 392 Palestinians denied a proper burial. Our nation should be ashamed of our complicity in this horror.

It was so encouraging today to hear @DelgadoRep share that her vision for the future of transportation in the Chicago region is that everyone’s FIRST choice is public transit. Yes! This is exactly the kind of vision and leadership we need now. Thank you!

Neither man of the house is happy about the addition
I think the juice is going to be worth the squeeze.
State lawmakers are out with a plan to boost public transit funding by $1.5B annually — and merge CTA, Metra, and Pace into a new regional transportation system @wttw news.wttw.com/2024/04/29/ill…
It’s progressive to have your grandkids pay off interest on billionaire subsidies. We don’t make the rules.
For reference, the parking meter deal will expire 20 years after the proposed stadium financing—when Caleb is in his 80’s. All the best deals burden multiple generations.
If all goes well, Caleb Williams will be the Bears star QB for the next 20 years. Or, about halfway into the 40-year, $4.97 billion borrowing plan the team is proposing to build a new stadium. Bears will brief Gov Pritzker’s office for the 1st time Weds chicagobusiness.com/politics/chica…
@MayorofIrvine just put out a statement. “I am asking our law enforcement to stand down. I will not tolerate any violations to our students rights to peacefully assemble and protest.”
Everyone deserves access to affordable + reliable public transportation. Support the Clean and Equitable Transportation Act and add your name in support: ilcleanjobs.org/platform #ElectrifyIL (Pictured: my son waiting 30 min for a train on a Saturday 🙃)
👏👏👏👏👏
This is a critical moment. The way we’ve been doing things has left Chicagoans and our entire region in the lurch — 3 competing agencies, a lack of public accountability and oversight, and service that has failed to meet the moment and needs of the people.
“We welcome discussion on reforms that strengthen coordination, efficiency + accountability. Riders deserve faster, more reliable service. But reforms must come with the necessary funding to maximize transit’s impact on the region’s economy, climate, and equity.” - @KDillardRTA

Lol every time this plan comes up Dorval Carter says the same thing: just give us the money, the governance issue isn’t important.
State legislators are proposing legislation that would create a transit agency to oversee public transit across northeastern Illinois and provide an additional $1.5 billion in annual funding for public transportation. trib.al/B1lzCf7
