On the 🚌 opening up my newest book by @nondriver.bsky.social I love to see how they connect climate and transportation. "we know that if we don't act to reduce emissions now, the disruption our children will have to survive will be even worse."

People have the power to take our democracy back. This right here helps to prove that after Musk quite literally tried to buy votes yet again to manipulate our government.

Definitely calling 311 on this parking situation.

Congestion pricing makes NYC safer www.nydailynews.com/2025/02/22/c...

What a strange time for a book to come out, especially one that’s a lot about racial justice and racial equity and inclusion and the interplay between public policy and private sector. And yet. Today is publication day for my first book, The Banks We Deserve. Buy it now: https://buff.ly/4gn36It

A new poll by Morning Consult shows that 59 percent of voters say Trump should “allow congestion pricing in New York City to continue,” the polling company said in a statement.
