The real tea is that there is nothing stopping Brandon Johnson from implementing #PlowTheSidewalks other than himself.
We did not need to pass an ordinance today for the city to be allowed to do it. We just needed to pass one for him to agree to do it.

Philadelphia is less than 2 days away from devastating transit service cuts. If you think that can't happen here too, think again!
The longer legislators wait, the closer we are to 40% service cuts right here at home.
@govpritzker.illinois.gov it's time to go back to Springfield and seal the deal!

3,000 pink slips go out to hard-working union members if we don’t address the transit fiscal cliff in the veto session this October – and tens of thousands more will have their livelihoods put in question with a 40% across-the-board transit service cut.

Illinois stands up for the hard-won advances made for workers.
The Pullman Strikes. The Haymarket Affair. It has been the people of this state who have led the charge for progress, not just for Illinois, but for the nation.
We are ready to do it again — whatever it takes.

Important message from IL State Sen Mike Simmons. The Illinois General Assembly needs to call a special session to pass critical transit governance reform and funding. It is vital for our economy, public health, and climate. @govpritzker.illinois.gov @harmonil.bsky.social @jaclyndriscoll.bsky.social
Today at the ribbon cutting for CTA’s brand new 100% accessible Red line stations, Senator Simmons made the call clear: it’s time for legislators to get back to Springfield NOW for a special session and fully fund public transit!
We can’t wait! We have to get this done now!
