Did you just get THAT misleading text from the Republicans? If you believe that out of state billionaires have no place in Missouri politics, ignore them and sign a petition to defend your constitutional rights as soon as you can! Who listens to random texts anyways?

Great quotation from our chair @tah.bsky.social and other transit leaders in this article from The Beacon about transit challenges ahead of the World Cup in Kansas City next year. Bottom line: we don't fund transit enough. The region needs a better funding model: thebeaconnews.org/stories/2025...

thebeaconnews.org

As World Cup demands loom, transit leaders face hard decisions to pay for extra bus service

Kansas City has been asking the state and federal government for financial help to pay for extra buses during the World Cup. The clock is ticking, and the transit agency hasn’t gotten a dime.

BlueSky is generally enjoyable, but the lack of Kansas City critical user mass has really taken away from what I like about social media. I don’t want my social media to primarily be a feed of national dialogue! I want to discuss/complain about local things online.

Tristin Amezcua-Hogan @tah.bsky.social · 06/10/2025

So much of what Zohran’s campaign is doing comes down to behind the scenes hires and being willing to not follow normal rules of campaigning. Looking forward to the eventual post-victory pieces where they go more into depth regarding campaign decisions!

Kansas City Regional Transit Alliance Vice Chair Michael Kelley says the poll shows that people across the metro will support public transit if their local governments invest in it, especially at a time when the state and federal governments are pulling back transit funding.

Voters across the Kansas City metro support a sales tax for better bus service, new poll finds

A new poll from the Kansas City Regional Transit Alliance found that voters in four counties across the metro would support a regional sales tax dedicated to bus service, even as soon as next year.

🚨ADVOCACY ALERT!🚨 KCRTA polling shows majority voter support for transit funding across the Kansas City region! 🧵 1 of 4:

Image from KCRTA. The text reads: "We believe that public transit funding is a REGIONAL problem. So we decided to hire the top transit pollster in the country to ask real voters in Jackson, Johnson, Clay, and Wyandotte Counties if they would vote to approve a sales tax that would fund a regional bus system. Here is what a majority of voters told us..."

In Kansas City, MO last night, well over 500 people gathered at IBEW Local 124 for an anti-gerrymandering rally. This is the largest union hall in hundreds of miles and it was standing room only. The only time this union hall has been more full in recent history was the anti-RTW-for-less fight.

Worth mentioning, but despite Missouri being known for historically union-strong-ish cities like Kansas City and St. Louis, the State of Kansas actually has a higher union-density rate! Topeka, Kansas was recently about as union-dense as the State of Hawaii!

A particularly fascinating part of @hamiltonnolan.bsky.social's book, The Hammer, was his report on the emphasis the Culinary Workers Union places on continual *internal organizing*—ie, not taking already-unionized workers as a given. It's a key source of their superlative power amongst its peers.

The mass starvation & killing of Palestinians in Gaza at the hands of the Israeli gov’t is a chillul hashem, a desecration of God. Jewish leaders who criticized Zohran Mamdani for three words he doesn’t use should raise their voices loudly here as well. forward.com/opinion/7575...

Gaza is starving. Where are the American Jewish leaders?

A fear of being labelled antisemitic still deters American Jews and Jewish institutions from taking a position that is morally correct.

A quote from Jason Kander in dark font on a white graphic saying “I’m proud to announce that I am endorsing Rebeca Amezcua-Hogan for Kansas City, MO’s 4th District City Council seat. Anyone who’s been in the city for long has seen Rebeca show up time and time again. She is a bold, values-driven, pragmatic leader with genuine roots in poor and working-class America. I know that she will stand up for working families and work to create a more fair city for all. Rebeca’s potential is enormous. She’s one of our city’s most promising emerging progressive leaders and I know that she will bring the heart, hustle, and vision that Kansas City needs.
