“We want to get something that is going to benefit us long term,” Horton says. “We know that we need to have a resilient airport operation. We just want to make sure we do it in the right way, in a sustainable way, in a way that’s economically feasible as well.” - TRAINS!

Change is hard for many people.
Change benefits many people, too.
Having the political will to embrace change is central to how I choose to lead.
Thank you @buttermilk1 & @TheWarOnCars for visiting our city and speaking with me about my views on political will and leadership.
Love this.

“We don’t have to live this way… and we don’t have to die this way… but we do have to care enough in order to change.” Having just returned from Australia and New Zealand where as she describes they have wide open roadways similar to the US this doesn’t happen there!
podcasts.apple.com/us/podcas…. Let’s do better! My social media feed has been filled recently with deaths on our roadways due to crashes. #safestreets @FarmAndCity #completestreets #slowdown
Love this!
As a Stewart I still feel confident in saying @SirPatStew is the best Stewart, the type of person I hope to be when I grow up.
