Quick reminder that @gavinnewsom.bsky.social is siphoning billions of dollars previously earmarked for affordable housing and transit and giving it to refineries and other polluters, resulting in disastrous cuts to our main statewide funding mechanisms

Why is @asmrickzbur.bsky.social hosting a fundraiser for Karen Bass with former Ticketmaster CEO Fred Rosen, who is opposing the Sepulveda line in AD51 and has a long history of berating civil servants and electeds with misogynistic hate— including these messages to @lindseyphorvath.bsky.social?

The E Line takes 47 minutes to go from DTLA to Santa Monica - often slower than driving. Ten years ago, it took 46. This is not an accident - it's a policy failure. A group of volunteers, including me, decided to do something about it. 🧵

Like @nickandert.bsky.social, I've spent too many hours with 1930s drawings to find storm sewers, pipelines, etc in LA. A county-wide unified "3D Underground" utility map seems like something that could streamline planning from megaprojects to DIY home improvements www.enr.com/articles/620...

Instead of having utility representatives mark each site, 3D Underground would let project planners work more independently.

Blue cities should tear up the roads in front of ICE facilities and then start decades of community engagement and input sessions to rebuild them. Let's harness our core competencies.

Not one white elected official who represents the City of LA, at the city or state level, supported SB 79. These legislators placed themselves in a long tradition of white leaders supporting zoning rules to keep brown people out of their white constituents' neighborhoods.

Connor Webb @connorwebb.bsky.social · 20/08/2025

I recently sent a letter to Katy Yaroslavsky showing that upzoning mostly along commercial corridors (as CHIP does) will exacerbate health disparities. Today, she was the deciding "yes" vote to oppose SB 79, knowingly reinforcing social determinants of health and health inequities in LA.

✅ PASSED ASSEMBLY LOCAL GOVERNMENT COMMITTEE: SB 79 by @scottwiener.bsky.social that would end the exclusionary housing policies that have made housing more expensive and transit inaccessible, allowing more people to live within walking distance of quality transit and boosting ridership.

If you haven't read it yet, @calelectricrail.org's new white paper on a different funding model for rail in CA is excellent, and we should be working now to get any prospective 2026 governor candidates (especially Harris if she runs) on board as champions of this, and of the SB125 task force recs.

Look at the difference between NorCal and SoCal. In the Bay, out of the 11 Senators repping urban areas, 8 voted yes. In LA County, out of 13 Senators only 4 voted yes. The LA delegation is killing housing bills.

Right-on-red turns are dangerous for pedestrians and cyclists, and yet they're still widely allowed across the U.S.
