It’s been seven long years since BCID and other disability advocates sued the MTA over the poor maintenance of its subway elevators. No settlement yet, so we came to today’s board meeting to make the point that it’s time to settle the case and fix the elevators. @GovKathyHochul
My niece just found out about the out of control costs of child care in our state and she is not happy. Thankfully, @NY4ChildCare is fighting for a better future for her and every other adorable* New York baby! You can join them here: united4childcare.org/donate

Grateful to the folks at @ULUNYC who are out here fighting to restore cuts to our libraries. Write a letter and tell @NYCMayor why Libraries are Vital 👇 actionnetwork.org/letters/tell-m…
A very unhappy 7th anniversary to this lawsuit against @MTA which is still ongoing. It's not enough to build elevators, they have to be maintained and available. When they're not, people should get timely information and reasonable travel alternatives. nytimes.com/2017/04/25/nyr…
New Jersey's @RepJoshG drove into Manhattan this morning to complain about congestion pricing — then parked illegally. He also has a camera-issued speeding ticket on his fancy Mustang: nyc.streetsblog.org/2024/04/24/got…
On Friday, @NYCMayor refused to say whether he’ll fully implement universal 3-K — so Arjuna & Artemis have a message for the Mayor: “Mayor Adams wants to give us crumbs — but we want the whole cookie!”
“The fact that @NYSA_Majority is willing to kill a deal on [#NYHEAT] really raises questions about how serious they are, how serious leadership is about addressing the relentlessly increasing energy bills New Yorkers are facing" - @Earthjustice

New Jersey can stick it to congestion pricing by giving commuters a reliable alternative to driving into the city. "The best thing New Jersey can do is not to fight them in court, but to fully fund NJ transit for the first time ever," said @alexfromNJ. newjersey.news12.com/mta-ceo-says-n…

A new report @RegionalPlan shows that NYS transportation improvement program money is mostly going to state-of-good repair and mostly to transit. That said, only 2% is budgeted for active transportation: rpa.org/work/reports/h…
It's really something to see Phil Murphy claim to be an environmentalist while he's spending $10 billion on a turnpike widening project that bottlenecks at the Holland Tunnel, suing to stop congestion pricing and hanging NJ Transit out to dry, after campaigning to fix it in 2017.

NJT Prez Kevin Corbett made it clear today during the Asm Budget hearing: if the Corporate Transit Fee or similar proposal doesn't give the agency dedicated funding, the *only* alternative is service cuts & more fare hikes. It's PAST time for dedicated funding for NJ Transit!
I invite anyone — esp @GovKathyHochul @ @MTA brass — who thinks there isn’t demand for like ten new subway lines in Brooklyn & Queens to come ride the G train at rush hour. Regularly packed to the brim and more crowded than lines that run into Manhattan, and it’s not even close.
Just called my Councilwoman, @CabanD22 (who I know already supports this legislation and we love her for that). This is so important, even for my non-parent friends. If you have 2 minutes today, please make a call to your Councilperson. Instructions below, it's so easy!

I genuinely wish every person up in arms about congestion pricing—a policy that would affect an extremely small number of wealthy NJans—would put that energy into caring about issues like transit, highway widenings, bike/ped safety as well. Things that *actually* hurt NJ.

NEW - @NYCMayor says Columbia protest has been "co-opted" and is going to share their intel, he says at 1 Police Plaza. He advises students involved in the protest to leave the area and tells parents to tell their kids to leave "before the situation escalates."
What’s happening tonight at @Columbia University and @CityCollegeNY is a travesty and a violation of both student and human rights. This is a shameful day.
All the power and love to these courageous students.
Students at Columbia linking arms in front of the main gate to prevent NYPD from entering and arresting their comrades. Arrests now.
I’ve had years of disputes with @errollouis of @NY1 but tonight he has been an incredible advocate for reason and true journalism around these students and I am grateful for it.
As many, including myself, take some time to absorb the events of tonight, there is one thing I am certain of...EVERY decision of Columbia's President Shafik, from the beginning of the protest was extraordinaly bad, escalated everything, & negatively reverbated across the…
not sure how liberals are gonna be able to scare us about fascism under a trump regime when this is literally happening against students & professors peacefully protesting in the most dem-majority state and city. sick to my stomach right now.
I really don’t know what’s going to happen at Columbia — or elsewhere — tonight. But I’m confident that none of it will make Israelis, Palestinians, Jews, or anyone else safer. 💔
as a former cuny trustee & university student senate student body chair I echo these same sentiments. cuny students & faculty have always remained on the right side of history & history has shown us this.
As a CUNY alumn I’m horrified by the images of riot cops mass arresting antiwar students at CUNY City College right now. This is an attack on free speech, and does the opposite of keeping students safe.
If any kid is hurt tonight, responsibility will fall on the mayor and univ presidents. Other leaders and schools have found a safe, de-escalatory path. This is the opposite of leadership and endangers public safety. A nightmare in the making. I urge the Mayor to reverse course.

If the necessary upgrades were made (straightening and route wide electrification) NYC to Montreal would become extremely popular. Average speed of 90mph would easily make it more desirable than plane or driving. NYC to Albany is already one of Amtrak’s most popular routes.
Today, 48 planes are scheduled to fly between Montreal and New York City. With proper high-speed rail and pre-clearance protocols, this journey could take less than 3 hours by train. Currently, it takes 11 hours by train. We deserve better.
Instead of throwing away billions of taxpayer💰on the Turnpike expansion - leading to more traffic - we should allocate this funding to NJ Transit. In direct contrast to Rob Menendez I oppose this ill-advised project & call on @GovMurphy to pull the plug. hudsoncountyview.com/bhalla-urges-m…

BIRDING IS PUNK
The McGolrick Bird Club's motto is to “teach neighbors and artists and weirdos how to bird.” Fans say the club has made birding — usually a quiet and calm endeavor — into something social. Read more about the self-proclaimed “feather rufflers": bit.ly/3UnoaWB
