Hearing "There are many who thought this day would never come" and "hope is alive" from Mamdani reminds me of the very best of "they said this day would never come" and the peak of the optimism of the hope era of Obama's entry to the national stage. But now, informed by all we've lost and learned.

We believe healthcare is a right for every American.
But starting today, millions of people will be notified that they are being priced out of their insurance thanks to Republican policies.
Enough is enough. The GOP may shut down the government, but we will stand tall for YOU.

Just a note that sending a notice that a particular public transit route will not be in service is a great idea.
I would prefer to have had this notice BEFORE the journey time and not 34 minutes later.
