Some days pour into you instead of pulling from you. Being at Bicycle Indiana’s Statehouse Day last week, advocating alongside passionate people, did exactly that. Feeling grateful, energized, and deeply grounded in my why ✨🏛️🚲🚸

My cousin texted me about ICE patrolling her apartment complex, and how a bunch of kids won’t go to the bus stop anymore. This is terror. And, as usual, the children will suffer most.

Will it be a year of "fractured resilience"? Or "pragmatic empathy"? Will "MOUs" be the next global health strategy? Are we in a new age of "decolonization" — or of "localization"? n.pr/4sSHivN

It's an old and obvious pattern. An unpopular president - failing on the economy and losing his grip on power at home - decides to launch a war for regime change abroad.

The American people don’t want to “run” a foreign country while our leaders fail to improve life in this one.

Devastating. Yesterday, a 5-year-old boy died from the flu.

Dr. Oz was spewing advice earlier this week where he downplayed the importance of vaccines and recommended “getting sunlight”.

I don’t know whether Micah was vaccinated, but of the kids who died from flu last year, 90% were not.

Don’t fall into the trap of thinking Vision Zero isn’t working.
When communities invest in proven strategies, lives are saved. Cities from Austin to Orlando show that redesigning streets, slowing speeds, and prioritizing people works.
