Transport and Housing make up about 59% of CT's total C02 emissions. Our emissions won't lower until we stop car-dependent sprawl and start building where it makes sense: around transit and on disused urban land. #HB5390 is a first step towards a truly climate-conscious CT.

Big thanks to @RepKavrosDeGraw for championing the fight against homelessness! Your advocacy for $5 million in cold weather funding is crucial for our community’s most vulnerable. #EndHomelessnessCT
📢 URGENT ACTION ALERT! Take two minutes today to contact your state representative and senator. Let them know you support Just Cause Eviction protections and ask them to vote yes on S.B. 143 - An Act Concerning Evictions. Click to send a message now: bit.ly/4d9kwbj
Thanks Tom Condon @CTMirror and People Friendly Stamford for helping us show CT that deadly vehicle speeds are designed into our roadways. All the enforcement in the world can’t make a killer road design safe. #DangerousbyDesign

Happy #EarthDay! 🌎 We can all make our planet greener, healthier, and safer by driving less, taking the bus or train, and walking or biking more. That's the promise of a post-sprawl future. Take a moment today to walk, bike, skate, hike, or simply spend some time outside!
"Homelessness IS a choice – not of the people who experience it, but of the policymakers who create, sustain and worsen it." - @dianeyentel
Join us at these Earth Week events! 💚🌎🌱
We design our roads to move cars fast at the expense of moving people safely. Pedestrian fatalities are a tragic but obvious result of this choice. #WorkLiveRide would empower towns & cities with the resources they need to amend mistakes like these and make our streets safer.

Thanks so much to everyone who turned out for our TOC Walk Audit of Old Saybrook this morning! Here are some highlights 🚉🚶🏘
Although the weather outside was gloomy, the atmosphere inside the Capitol was filled with enthusiastic support for the Just Cause bill, SB 143. Right now, landlords in #Connecticut can force most month to month renters out of their homes on short notice.. 1/2
Pro-homes advocates are out in force this spring!! 🙌🙌

If your answer is "nothing, we don't want more housing," just own it and stop pretending you support some hypothetical solution you refuse to articulate.
If you don't want transit-oriented development, what alternative do you propose? If you don't want as-of-right middle housing, what alternative do you propose? If you don't want to incentivize office-to-resi conversions, what alternative do you propose?
