If you ever feel unqualified, remember that a gang of billionaires spent $900 million for 60,000 acres with no water, no infrastructure, a roster of endangered species, and a voter-approved ordinance that specifically bans building a city there. Now they’re begging politicians to bail them out.

ICYMI: before the People’s Budget Coalition fought to restore 80% of budget cuts last week, Mayor Lurie’s budget was bleak. Although most of the cuts are restored, it’s important to remember that this is because of dedicated advocacy, not a change of heart by the administration🧵
