A great part of my job is I get to lead the team writing the MBTA's Annual Service Delivery Report. Today we released our Fall 2024 report. cdn.mbta.com/sites/defaul... Shout out to my team and the Data Viz folks at OPMI (none are on bluesky I think) 🧵on why I am particularly excited about this:

Hey @crew.bsky.social or other ethics experts. In the absence of federal grants, what are the implications for the Hatch Act for state, local and NPO employees?

So I was a federal employee for years and I am going to repeat a fact that people forget every time a politician sings this song. The government is wildly understaffed and you will feel these kinds of cuts immediately because the people eligible for retirement make up the bulk of knowledgeable staff

Sharing a short thread summarizing the #TRBAM workshop I co-organized on low-income reduced fare programs. We learned a lot from experts about what works best and how we can design programs most effectively. Many thanks to the panelists and my co-organizers, plus great engagement from attendees.

Am enjoying #TRBAM but struck by the lack of vegetarian / pescataeian options at the convention center for lunch. Appears to be limited to Ben's chili (2 locations, long lines), a sad grab and go hummus wrap (multiple), and a burrito (1 location). Somehow the sub shop doesn't even have anything!

Our #TRBAM2025 workshop brought together experts from the public transit and shared micromobility fields to share their research and best practices for low-income reduced fare programs. A big thanks to my co-organizers Candace Brakewood, @leebier.bsky.social, and Adam Cohen!
