Happy Election Day! With our democracy profoundly challenged right now, it feels so good to vote.
Columbus - if you haven’t already, please go vote for Jesse Vogel! He’s a good human and will make a great Council Member.

My wife and I were discussing the news today while in the car just now, and from the back seat, my son chanted “stand up, fight back.”
So proud! Here he is at our local protest earlier this week.

Want to live in a more livable city? Try walking, biking, or taking transit. You might be surprised how much is possible now and your action sends a signal to policy makers that encourages further improvements. Plus it’s just more fun than driving.
(But also please vote for pro-urbanism candidates)

USAID cuts will kill 14 million people over the next five years. That is an incalculable loss.
Some comparisons:
- COVID has killed 7 million people worldwide
- About 10 million people died in the holocaust.
- Mao’s great famine killed 15M+.
We should talk about these cuts in those terms.

Columbus, Ohio showed up in force, despite the rain, to stand up for our students, our teachers, and our schools.
No cuts to public education—in Washington or Columbus!

The little dude and I hit the doors for the first time this year to support Jesse Vogel for City Council.
It feels good to deeply engage in our democracy while it is under assault. We the people are the heart of our democracy. We say no to any attempt to undermine it.

Huge turnout today for the @indivcentraloh.bsky.social #icotownhall and folks are fired up. None of our elected officials showed up, but folks in this room are ready to organize and take action - protests, contacting their reps, registering voters, winning elections. We’re not backing down!

While we can prevent some harm and slow things down, the path to ending this nightmare starts by winning back the House next year.
There are 17 vulnerable Republican House incumbents (more than enough for Dems to win back the House).

As we protest Tesla - I think an important angle is that EVs are great but there are other great options! We owned a Mustang Mach-e for three years and loved it. We now have a Kia EV9 which is also really great so far.
You don’t have to deal with Elon’s garbage to get a great EV!
