Interestingly, there’s not a single mention of Vision Zero in @DDOTDC Director Sharon Kershbaum’s testimony to the DC Council’s Committee on Transportation. Seems a bit odd when that’s been the explicit goal in the District for over a decade now. Has DDOT just given up on this?

Stop listening to your corporate lobbyists and donors. Kick them out.
Support Medicare for All. Be anti-war.
It’s really that simple.

According to Chapter 18 of the U.S. Code, attempting to access classified documents without proper security clearance is a federal felony punishable by up to 10 years in prison. The rule of law should apply to everyone.
3 Feb 2025
The USAID systems that Elon Musk's DOGE team tried to access included personnel files and security systems — including on classified systems beyond the security level of at least some of the DOGE employees.
The systems also included security clearance information for agency employees. nbcnews.com/politics/nationa…

NYC is 12x DC’s population (8.2m to 700k) yet only had 7x more bikeshare rides than we did (44m to 6m). DC bikes more per person that NYC!!! That is incredible despite how much we still have to go with regard to safe and efficient biking!

A little-discussed aspect of the Bowser administration's legacy is the destruction of local transit service. Supporting Jack Evans's attempted destruction of Metro, gutting the ambitious Gray plans for a real streetcar network and, finally, killing the Circulator.
31 Dec 2024
Today is the last day of DC Circulator service across all remaining routes. Service will end at 9 PM. We extend our heartfelt gratitude to our riders for their support over the past 19 years and appreciate the community’s understanding during this transition.

.@DCDPW will be able to immediately tow & impound vehicles with counterfeit or obscured license plates following passage of my fake tags bill by the Council today. Parking enforcement is a critical tool to address traffic safety & hence public safety. brianneknadeau.com/bills-to-…
ALT "In a world where nearly all citations are from automated cameras, where many people choose not to pay their fines, and where there is little consequence to driving privileges, we must make better use of booting, towing, and impounding to get vehicles tied to dangerous driving off the road."

DC is the only place where you can be riding your bike home through Navy Yard, yell at someone for flying through multiple stops signs and it's Marjorie Taylor Greene.
