Have you visited Pasadena’s newest urban park - Playhouse Village Park? Located at 701 E. Union Street just north of the Playhouse on El Molino. Enjoy the lush new green scape with a children’s playground, amphitheater, and a shaded picnic area (photos @brigham ) #Pasadena

Breaking: One of the most beautiful historic office buildings in #Pasadena just signed on a new restaurant opening this year. This will help activate this corner and build a stronger pedestrian connection along Colorado Blvd. #fogodechao #brazilianbbq brighamyen.com/2022/04/16/fo…

#AB1238 will make pedestrians safer at little to no cost to the state. Plus, it will eliminate pretextual police stops for jaywalking that make the public less safe. It’s time to move forward with decriminalizing jaywalking. @GavinNewsom @Portantino

Jaywalking laws have nothing to do with public safety. Oakland PD deprioritized bike/walk stops in 2018 & issued zero jaywalking tickets in 2019, yet severe pedestrian injuries & deaths actually dropped 11% from 2017 to 2019. @GavinNewsom @Portantino

There is no evidence that jaywalking laws make pedestrians safer. Pedestrian crashes haven't decreased even while jaywalking enforcement has increased. We must invest in what works - safer infrastructure & decriminalization. Pass #AB1238 now! @GavinNewsom @Portantino

The idea that Facebook would brag about “pre-ducing” distribution even before a fact check shows how far we’ve come on this topic - a few years ago this would be the kind of thing James O’Keefe would uncover through secret recordings. Now execs just…tweet it out...

While I will intentionally not link to the New York Post, I want be clear that this story is eligible to be fact checked by Facebook's third-party fact checking partners. In the meantime, we are reducing its distribution on our platform.
