So excited to talk with you, @megankimble! 🫶🏼
Three reasons why you should register for our Equity in Transit webinar: bit.ly/EIT24 1. You support safe reliable public transit 2. You think Houstonians deserve a choice in how to move around their city 3. You can't attend but will donate: linkhouston.org/donate/
good vibes (increasing radicalization against freeways) continue this week!
Only small cities remove highways like Rochester, New York City, and Seoul.
Great idea to us 💡
Make plans for next Saturday and come hang out with us at Cosmic Saltillo! ☕️ 🌮 RSVP today at actionnetwork.org/events/rethink…

Thanks to @rethink35 for putting words into action.
Last Thursday, Rethink35 attended the Texas Transportation Commission monthly meeting in Austin. We read excerpts from @megankimble ‘s new book “City Limits” in hopes that they will read it too!
@rethink35 Looks like someone just donated the last $109 to reach the goal!!

Reminder that Highway 401 is the busiest and most congested highway in North America and is already 18 lanes at its widest point. Aside from a few chokepoints, widening is not going to solve traffic on the 401.
