So many people I know who don’t own a car are able to live that way because of HourCar. This is a huge loss

Having Evie and HourCar available helped us feel more confident in our decision to go down from 2 to 1 car in 2021. Losing HourCar and Evie will likely negatively impact other households looking to do the same. We need *more* public investment in resources like this, transit and bike share.

This gap is less than it cost the mayor to put a bounce house in the warehouse district for a summer. This is 1/33 the cost of MPS's surprise overtime. They renovated Target Center in part by making us, the citizens, pay $74 million via a sales tax. WE. HAVE. MONEY. We can spend it in better places

@aishaforward10.com @jchavezmpls.bsky.social @aurinmpls.bsky.social @elliottpayne.org this is incredibly disappointing. What can you do to help your constituents? We don’t want or need Waymo. Thousands of us relied on Evie/HourCar.

The good old "the actual harms you are seeing & experiencing are a distraction from what will happen with the magical machine god (that's coming around any day now) argument." Its so interesting to see how when they see the public isn't falling for this bullshit anymore they peddle it even more.

Fun fact, only the first $184,500 of income is subject to the social security payroll tax. If you just lift that cap, you get most of the way to solving the shortfall

I keep thinking about Flanagan mentioning the fact that so many of our kids in Minnesota now have ACE (adverse childhood experiences) scores because of the things the federal government did here, and how she will work on those kids' behalf in DC. It's amazing to hear someone plainly say that.

I told them. You don’t have to take on Trump, but refusing to acknowledge the pain and suffering of those who spend their money and energy on your team is an insult. I was hopeful they would do something. To try to wish it all away with “unity” is just pathetic.
