First, the UK defeated their right-wing party by the widest margin in nearly 200 years. Then, France rallied a vast coalition against all odds to stop the right-wing fascist movement from taking over.
America, now it's your turn to do the same.

Here's a transit success story from @ColoradoDOT's Bustang, an intercity bus service with 13 routes connecting communities across Colorado.
Quick history:
- 2015 launch: 1 trip/day on I-70
- Current: 6-8 trips/day on I-70 & I-25 routes
- Winter 2024: 12-15 trips/day on I-70 & I-25 routes
Service expansion leads to more ridership.
For the I-70 route, 2023 ridership was 68% above 2019 levels! 🙌
Also, the buses can cruise past traffic in the highway Express Lanes, and CDOT is building "mobility hubs" with center-loading to improve travel times (see construction photo).
This is a proven strategy to reduce congestion & transportation pollution.

Congresswoman, in what way do you believe that your support helped this project? We chose it because it's a good project, and funded it using President Biden's infrastructure package, which you voted against.
Great meeting with Glenwood Springs City Councilor and former Mayor Jonathan Godes.
We have secured over $51.4 million for the South Bridge.
Was thrilled to hear about nearly $30 million in costs savings in addition and that my support has helped make this project a reality.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Boebert hasn’t secured 51.4 million dollars for this bridge. The money came from a Biden-Harris grant that is part of the “Rural Surface Transportation Grant Program”, which itself is a part of the“Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act” which Boebert voted against.
