Transportation and access are freedom β I love my bike, these sidewalks, and public transit ππ΄ββοΈπ Let's redistribute this bread fam ππ’β¨
@JoshuaWostal@MrsAuroraSkyes There are real reasons why our buses aren't working for us. Ask actual transportation planners - both locally and in comparably-sized counties - who have dedicated their lives to bus systems planning to help. Please π
@JoshuaWostal@MikeGra68841698 Yes but not by eliminating an entire mode of transportation - a mode that sooomehooowww works flawlessly for thousands of municipalities around the world. ESPECIALLY not one relied upon by the most underserved, vulnerable, and important workers in our county.
@JoshuaWostal Sigh @ 15 votes π I appreciate your attempt at citizen engagement but there are professionals who can do that for you in an actually meaningful way. Thanks!
I have two transgender friends who have been attacked on the HART bus. One was even verbally attacked by a bus driver. I expect that "customer experience" support includes training bus drivers to protect LGBTQ riders? Please ππ #USFCEOconvo
I know of multiple people who have been hit by cars while trying to get to the bus stop in Hillsborough County. Adelee Le Grand is on-point with prioritizing the safe accessibility of bus stops #USFCEOconvo
"Bus drivers should have the awe and respect of airline pilots. If anything, they have even more responsibility, instead of disappearing behind a closed door they help grandma find her change purse." -Adelee Le Grand #USFCEOconvo
Ppl from other cities who are flocking here are EXPECTING public transit because they had it in Austin, in Portland, in Chicago, in NYC. I have heard from out-of-towners that they're incredibly disappointed that out bus system is under-funded and non-functional #USFCEOconvo
But you know what else is expensive? BUILDING AND MAINTAINING ROADS AND SINGLE-OCCUPANT VEHICLE OWNERSHIP. The, "public transit is too expensive" talking point is tiiiired. It's car-loving propaganda. (This isn't a question lol) #USFCEOconvo
Today, it is difficult for bus riders and bus supporters alike in Hillsborough to access decision-making processes and have a voice. What are some big ideas you will implement to provide opportunity for community leadership? #USFCEOconvo (this is my most important question! Ty)
I just interrupted a press conference in Miami-Dade to let governor @RonDeSantisFL and @MayorGimenez know they are an embarrassment to FL and that their incompetence and lack of planning has resulted in the current public health crisis.
4,381 people have died so far in FL
#NepotismBarbie is an insult to Barbies everywhere. Barbie is educated; sheβs a doctor, sheβs a lawyer, sheβs a pilot, and she worked for that damn Malibu dream house. Oh and her clothes are better. Bye Ivankkka
