New from AMPO: US DOT “working quickly to ensure that planning actions” on state & metro plans “are in compliance with the DOT orders,” eg related to issues like prioritizing birth & marriage; banning DEI & climate change. Could be unheard-of fed. meddling in local & state transport choices.

Just remarkable, unalloyed good coming from this policy. I can’t understand why anyone would want to dismantle it.

Dear Dems. This is a reminder that Donald Trump rescinded the ethics rules preventing gifts to executive branch employees. Now would be a good time to propose legislation formalizing the prevention into a law Time to do things that make him react to you. apnews.com/article/trum...

At one point, I thought that Rs could outplay the Ds in a really impactful way by doing a full court housing press. They appear to have not seen that opportunity.

In many ways it's fitting that the showdown between monarchy and democracy ends up being over NYC congestion pricing. Cities are where the power of kings were first challenged, and few things are more fundamental to government than control of public space. The cameras are staying on!

As Baby Boomers age, the percentage of the U.S. population that is disable will rise rapidly, and our housing supply is not prepared. 4 story zoning is a straightforward way to make a dent in the problem.

This perspective from Cecelia Black about the need to create accessible apartments throughout the city is super important. If it is going to be One Seattle for ALL, flats are the only new option for disabled folks. www.cascadepbs.org/politics/202...

We can get off the rhetorical carousel framing Seattle's future as either housing or trees by pivoting to vocal support for planting 10s of thousands of new trees on public lands in rights of way, schools, and parks. City Council could provide a greener future by leaning into public trees.

Absolutely lol'ing at the notion the toll was set to fund the MTA's capital budget and not reduce traffic when the enacted toll is just 60% of the revenue target toll and has produced a sharp reduction in traffic. ANYWAYS

Winston Churchill was right: "Democracy is the worst form of government except for all those other forms that have been tried.” Too many Americans have fought and died defending democracy. We must stand with our European allies against the authoritarianism of Putin and Trump.

I just got this email from our statewide city association about @jessdbateman.bsky.social's parking bill, and boy it’s frustrating to see the org we pay dues to sending emails like this out. So frustrating that I will address their local control talking points in a thread.

I saw plenty of “everyday Seattleites” at the events OPCD held about the comp plan all last year. Why are their points of view not as valuable to tbe council? Maybe CMs need to spend more time with everyday Seattleites instead of just folks who have convenient monthly meetings for Electeds

If Washington’s @cantwell.senate.gov is so “deeply concerned” about Trump’s nominee for deputy DOT Sec Steven Bradbury why isn’t she putting a hold on his nomination and a blanket hold on all transportation related nominees until Musk stops meddling with FAA and our govt in general?

It is perfectly legal to know your rights and to educate others about them, too. EVERYONE in the United States, citizen or not, has rights. I will not allow this administration to intimidate us from helping you know about them. Here’s our shareable guide ⬇️: (pt. 1/2)

Adams must be removed. The city cannot sustain being governed for nearly a year by a Mayor who is being coerced by Trump admin in order to escape charges. This corruption poses a real threat to the people of the city. He should have resigned a while ago, but will not. So it’s time for him to go.
