<U+201C>Make no little plans. They have no magic to stir men's blood and probably themselves will not be realized. Make big plans; aim high in hope and work.<U+201D> I literally daydream about a future King-Cermak Light Rail Line: https://t.co/IDlVdquqpT

We could have a more efficient transportation system but all we<U+2019>ve gotten is greed, excuses, and scams. https://t.co/dy2AKUBhE3 https://t.co/TxWH44vclj

I can’t stop thinking about how we produce and sell suvs so huge that you can’t see a child crossing the street but we have a criminal legal system against air fresheners on the mirror. Our communities want safety and justice and the status quo isn’t bringing it.

I<U+2019>ll just say, on this night, I<U+2019>m very interested in changing infrastructure to reduce a dependence on cars and car culture. I<U+2019>m excited to visit Europe for the first time this year. Someone asked me what I<U+2019>m excited to see. I answered the trains and bike paths.

Had a great honeymoon in Europe. Took public everywhere. Enjoyed Dublin<U+2019>s wide ranging bus network as well as running around London<U+2019>s packed Underground and Eurostar. Amsterdam is a shining example of safe transit without the laziness of carceralism. Oh and public restrooms! https://t.co/cmKx1JyroE https://t.co/ijmuYHcn86
