Sacramento Regional Transit is asking the public to weigh in on its latest plans for the long-proposed Downtown Riverfront Streetcar Project. https://www.kcra.com/article/sacrt-revised-downtown-riverfront-streetcar-project/69769132 

Anyone know if there's work in the CA legislature on providing direct funds for the 2050 CA State Rail Plan? Or is it just expected to get funding through Caltrans?

Only in Sacramento do you have a crowd this loud with a team that’s been so bad. We just want competitive basketball!

Really recommend this episode to understand how utterly dumb the current American energy policy is, but how positive the forecast is for solar specifically.

One more thing to add with this is the projected 40-year tax revenue generation: 1/4 cent = $5 billion 1/2 cent = $10 bill *1 cent = $20 bill *Not under consideration by this measure, but I wish it was. If it were, this measure would provide ~$500 million extra to SacRT every year for 40 years!

For reference, the tax plan they are preparing for is 1/2 cent measure. LA's Measure M was for a full cent measure. I really wish Sac was going for the full cent. I think the 1/2 cent will go a long way in making public transit more viable across the region, but a full cent would be transformative.

SacRT is currently creating their long/short-term plans for the region based on a measure that will be on the ballot in 2026 for a 1/4 cent or 1/2 cent sales tax. Here's their presentation on what they are looking at: youtu.be/KLaT83RsgyE?...

Can we get this started in Sacramento? There are so many unused/underused parking lots across the city.

The Kings are the worst offense and second worst defense with the 5th oldest roster and the 2nd highest average age by minutes. We're old and bad and play our old-bad players a lot. Blow it up.

I want to talk about how this corrosive view of automobility and cities relates to decades of failure on transit policy.

Dems need to be talking about how "clean energy is the cheapest form of energy" at every chance they have and that they are also the only ones willing to build it.

And Man U comes right back and takes the lead back on a header from Maguire

Liverpool finally evens it up on a scrambled play that somehow ends up on Gakpo's foot

Salah with his best chance yet and just shanks it

Man, another strike off the post for Gakpo

Another great through ball this time to Isak, but Lammens comes up with the foot save. Liverpool has dominated possession since the first goal but can't put it away.

What a pass and shot from Liverpool. Off the side post.

Liverpool maybe got like 2 touches on the ball before Man U scores? Wild start

This is the way.

Nique got blocked on that dunk attempt but I like that he went for it

Idk how you're supposed to watch a basketball game that shows only half of the game lol This is insane

Every Kings possession is a chance to show a Blazers replay.

BREAKING NEWS: SB 79 HAS BEEN SIGNED INTO LAW. Thank you to @scottwiener.bsky.social @gavinnewsom.bsky.social and cosponsors CA Yimby, Greenbelt Alliance, Inner City Law Center, Bay Area Council, AHLA, and SPUR. for making this bill happen.

Looks like the Kings have the exact same problems as last year and the year before. 😐

I completely forgot the Raptors traded from Brandon Ingram.

There will be a light rail station basically right outside the new stadium when it's built.

How did the Niners end up winning this game lol

I'm the least excited I've been about a Sacramento Kings season since probably before Tyreke was drafted.

Was Mac Jones the key this whole time?

If the Kings trade for Kuminga, I have always believed in him.

Demotion on the old Sacramento Bee headquarters as viewed by the Gold Line. They are turning the land into housing units. (Don't mind the two arguing over wide receivers lol)

This is slightly longer than a light rail line from Dixon to Auburn. Crazy.

LA is so pro-housing that it's requesting to be exempted from the most important pro-housing legislation in CA history.

Watching the new Lucid Stew video on CAHSR and saw this comment. I really like this idea, but don't know what obstacles there would be outside political will/funding. Seems like you would probably still need to build to Gilroy from the Central Valley to get to SF tho.

Sacramento representing well! Proud of my city on this. Also, it is sincerely frustrating that LA both wants billions in cap-n-trade money taken from CAHSR for their own projects, while they vote not to house people near transit.

I'm super grateful to all the people involved in working on this legislation and my Sacramento reps, Assemblymember Krell and @senatorashby.bsky.social, for the aye votes. This may be the most important bill to pass the legislature this year.

15th and 16th St in Sac comes to mind

The Sacramento skyline deserves another skyscraper or two.

Pretty big apartment complex looks like it's nearly completed at Broadway and 16th in Sac. Broadway is along the bus route (51) that is planned to become SacRT's first BRT line.

Somewhat unrelated, but we need more apartment complexes with grocery stores in them.

Deep, long sigh...

CAHSR has been signalling they should pivot towards Gilroy/Palmdale for a while now. Not sure how Merced was blindsided by this. Especially since they would need legislature direction to shift course anyways. But Gilroy/Palmdale seems like the best path to take, imo.

Any chance the Capitol Corridor can get one of those Acela II's? Asking for a friend.

People are not very informed about the steps CAHSR has taken to improve the issues that plagued it at the outset. We can talk about what should have happened, how it should have started, but the Authority is in a *much* better place than it was in 2008-2012 and it's going to be (is being) built.

Compare this to the CA State Rail Plan.

BREAKING: A new experiment in Philly shows cash rental assistance slashed homelessness rates by 57–67%.

I believe all of these things so I guess someone's just going to have to get me courtside seats to prove me wrong.

Goorge W. Bush is just Bill Gates

There was never any legitimate reason to tie healthcare with work in the first place and ppl are sick of the excuses. Everyone deserves healthcare, period.

Tourist destinations in the US are going to get destroyed by this admin.
