Praying for her family tonight. Hug your loved ones a little tighter.

Look I love all the followers i get from starter packs but if you don’t engage with my content im not following back! Give this post a like to get a follow back!

Thank you so much to everyone who came to our Fall Fundraiser this weekend! We showed, once again, that there is a community of advocates and people who want to see RTD work for the people again. Thank you all for your support, together we'll make an RTD that works for everyone!

Thank you, veterans, today on Veterans Day and every day. As the son, grandson, and great-grandson of veterans, I’m deeply grateful for their service. Their dedication to the values our nation stands for, including freedom, opportunity, and a better world, have shaped who I am.

Event next Saturday ! Join me to flip RTD district K blue!

S Tier candidate. Michael has a big heart, an unyielding work ethic, and a strong moral character. He will be a force on the RTD board. Check him out at michaelforrtd.com

What an amazing kickoff! Thank you to everyone who came out to support this campaign and help launch our work to fix RTD. Big thanks to our speakers, including @mdoughertyco.bsky.social and @chrisfnicholson.com, for your support! Together we can build an RTD that works for everyone.

Big News: @atucomms.bsky.social Local 1001, the union representing thousands of the workers who keep our buses and trains moving, has endorsed our campaign for RTD! Their support means a lot to me as a former labor organizer, and shows our unions believe in my visions of an RTD for everyone.

This might actually be a good thing… “light trucks” are incentivized by our tax code and they kill tons of pedestrians. The return of smaller cars would be good

The problem with Rumble, Gab, Mastodon, and now Bluesky is that when you define yourself by opposing a useful—if flawed—tool’s misuse, you end up with a no-true-Scotsman purity culture that regular users find deeply off-putting. Push back, and you lose the loyal purity-testing ones too.

Folks, it’s official: I’m running to represent District K on the RTD Board of Directors! 🚍 We deserve transit that shows up, supports housing choices, and keeps communities connected. Join us: michaelforrtd.com Together we are building an RTD that works for everyone.

If only we had a super competent Latina who is term limited in the state senate and would do an amazing job replacing one of the no votes… Jk…. Unless?

How many churches, schools, hospitals, daycares, restaurants, shelters, food banks, and homes have to be destroyed? Does killing the poor, the sick, the elderly, the young, the religious leaders, the air workers, the journalists, the refugees, and civilians get us any closer to peace?

In government, cooperation is key to achieving a better future. With transportation already under attack by this administration, we don't need people like Trump harassing RTD staff and making progress harder. Thank you to Chair Bouquet for focusing on progress with this move!

If you voted for Trump or didn’t vote because “both parties are the same” You’re an idiot.

Colorado faces a shortage of affordable, diverse housing options. Our new blog looks to Portland, Oregon, for lessons on how middle housing reforms can help fix that🏘️ From SWEEP and our new Housing Forward Colorado campaign

We need more housing so our grandparents can stay in our communities as they age! "Today’s affordability crisis can be traced to a number of factors, including . . . the Great Recession, rising construction costs and restrictive zoning policies that make it hard to build large numbers of units."

This is actually a very good sign. Dems willing to loudly fight for our values are much more useful to the party than Dems (like our governor) who put up only tepid private hesitance while trying to placate the President's irrational whims.

T minus two years from Zohran either being the next AOC and having the Abundance libs endorsing him for gov while DSA un-endorses him or Brandon Johston and the next mayor be Curtis Silwa

I realized I could make more impact on more lives by getting this done locally than nationally. Showing up is 9/10s of the game in local politics. Now, if you live in Colorado, odds are your city council is mad at my housing work.

This app man. I need bluesky posters to stop being HOA presidents. If you want regular people to agree with you, do not criticize the way they are agreeing with you because it is insufficiently aligned with the "proper" language. This app is fun because it's like opening a 2020 time capsule

Yimby North Metro has a happy hour tonight! Come join us!

Gov. Polis is telling communities that if they don’t want to play ball, they don’t get money from the state for other priorities. Voters are worried about the housing crisis, and the communities that don’t think it’s worth fixing don’t need our money then. Thank you @govofco.bsky.social !

Another win for @yimbydenver.bsky.social! We are making huge progress on our effort to legalize housing here in Colorado!

One of the things I worry about is that small towns often feel bullied by cities and complain that no one wants to move to them, or complain about under service (food- healthcare- legal-deserts) but they consistently fail to fund schools and other essential services. What's the end game of this?

Yeah, this shouldn't be surprising. Coloradans are facing enough pressure from rising costs in all areas, a 1% fee on their insurance to make big business happy isn't a solution. Good on the state leg here.

This really remarkable reporting and I’m so incredibly proud of the staff who are speaking up for others and hopefully preventing this form happening again. We cannot allow this behavior to unchallenged, voters and staff deserve better.

Supply and demand baby, no revolution needed.

He is risen! Wishing everyone a peaceful and blessed Easter today.

Reminder: Yadira Caraveo voted for measures condemning Harris’s work on immigration, attempted to strangle free speech alongside Trump, and missed key voted thanks to her mental health issues. Co-08 deserves better than Yadira. We need to bring a rep who can win in 2026, that’s not Yadira.

I really don't think a primary here makes sense. At a certain point we have to recognize we found a strong candidate for a R+2 seat and shift our focus to beating the GOP. I am all in behind Manny for CD-08!

Join the push for more affordable housing in Colorado. Tell your legislators to support HB25-1169 — a smart, balanced step toward inclusive and sustainable communities. Every letter counts! 🏘️✉️ #COleg #HousingForAll #HB25-1169 actionnetwork.org/letters/tell...

Thanks to the @wmata.com for getting me where I needed to go this weekend as part of this rush! A model transit agency, they help create a model of good communication, great customer experience, and solid leadership!

This is not a serious candidate or campaign.

Things guys who are running for office when they should be spending time hanging out with their grandkids do:

I'm not sure what an "Abundance Bro" is, but just in case you think it's us at @yimbydenver.bsky.social we supported the measure to ban new gas stations. David is getting very close to "making up a guy to get mad at"

We’ve got TWO happy hours coming up soon! March 25th at Yard House, and a joint event with the Parking Reform Network on March 30th at Henry’s Tavern. Raise a glass with us at one (or hopefully both!) of these events🍻🍻 www.eventbrite.com/e/yimby-denv... www.eventbrite.com/e/yimby-denv...

Your life should not be able to be upended for no reason with your boss firing you for no reason. I will be supporting this measure prohibiting firing without good cause.

Get em Bennet.

I really cannot understate my disappoint in New York leadership right now. We really need some leadership with some spine willing to stop making excuses and fight Trump's insane agenda.

This is the kind of nonsense that leads to voters' skepticism of Dem's ability to lead and be efficient. This is unacceptable.

If Coraveo runs she’ll get buzzsawed by Rutinel

I cannot tell you how much I do not respect the mom-and-pop drug dealer as a legitimate job lmaooo Written testimony largely opposed the repeal: "Many were concerned that repealing decriminalization would take away rights from mom-and-pop producers and instead favor investor-backed companies."

Compelling testimony by #Denver mayor. Regardless of your side, shouldn't this be at the heart of this entire debate? “As scripture says, ‘For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat. I was thirsty, you gave me something to eat. I was a stranger and you invited me in.’ So that’s what we did.”

Way to go Alex!! Join the movement help those of us at @yimbydenver.bsky.social approve housing and those at @habitatforhumanity.bsky.social building it 💪🏡🏘️🌇

As Paolo, Emma, James, Richard, and I from @greatdentransit.bsky.social all testified on Tuesday, the department needs to make safety a priority and stop waving through contracts without reviewing them. Hopefully this exit will result in better, more competent, leaders joining RTD's security teams.
