Join me in calling and messaging Governor Pritzker's office to demand funding for transit

I just called the Chicago office and had a lovely chat with a staffer on why transit is important to me

A word of advice for all the transit advocates out there: our state elected officials are putting their careers on the line to save transit right now. It is critical to show unwavering support for these people.

These new taxes are going to be wildly unpopular. It's our job to educate the public

@chicagotree.bsky.social I liked the the first corkscrew willow so much I planted these just 24 months ago. They are growing 5-6 feet per season. 1. Fast growing. 2. Flood preventing 3. Dappled Shade. 4. No leaf raking. 5. Free kindling 6. Beautiful in winter. 7. Early foliage.

If you live in Illinois and want housing abundance, here's the highest impact thing you can do, which will take just 10 minutes:

Call the offices of your state rep and senator, mention these bills by name, and why you want more housing in your neighborhood, city, and state.

READ: “Policies to help people walk & cycle such as low-traffic neighbourhoods can create public health benefits as much as 100 times greater than the cost of the schemes, a long-term study has concluded.” AND the benefits continue to grow even higher over time.
