Our @DENAirport claims they want to be the greenest airport in the world. Yet they plan to spend close to a billion dollars on expanding a highway that parallels another highway that is being expanded without investing in transit. We call BS.

Hoboken, New Jersey is a dense city center that hasn’t had a traffic death in over 4 years. They’ve accomplished this by creating more narrow, one-way streets, high visibility crosswalks, raised intersections, curb extensions, bike & bus lanes, and removing parking spaces.

Joint Cmte on Rising Utility Rates making clear: Xcel’s dependence on a volatile gas market is the driving factor behind rate hikes. Investments in clean energy do not increase utility bills; in fact, the extent to which we’re replacing fossil fuels w renewables does the opposite

[The Alliance for Solar Choice @alliance4solar]

Xcel Energy's #solar interconnection delays are unacceptable. People are waiting *six months* to connect to the grid. Contact your Colorado representative here: https://t.co/3fndl0MgVw

My pondering from last night’s Denver Mayoral debate:

If the cabinet members and the mayor were all selected from the 13 FEF candidates on stage, who would you choose to head…

1. HOST
2. Public Safety
3. DEDO
4. DOTI
5. CASR

And who would you choose as mayor to lead them?

[Sarah Lake @sarahelake]

Yes! @LisaforDenver on fire, bringing her 30 years of experience to highlight that this isn't just a question about reducing funding to the police, but also how we're allocating resources to critical, yet underfunded services

Our friend and comrade Lucy Molina is featured in a new documentary about her fight for clear air & a safe future! The film centers on Lucy's experience living near the pollution-spewing Suncor Refinery.

@CleanAirMoms CO organizer @Shaina41466050 also lives near the refinery. Last year, she & Lucy co-wrote a @denverpost op-ed about how this polluter jeopardizes their community's health and perpetuates a long history of racism & environmental injustice. https://t.co/JEFBnWBPZE

Monday mood = mayor envy

[Resilient Denver @ResilientDenver]

This country is paying drivers $4,000 to switch to an electric bike. Might this be a natural migration or extension of Denver’s e-bike rebate? ⁦@DenverCASR⁩ https://t.co/CZKn6hAeRl

We have called the race for Ordinance 307! With over 80% of the votes counted, #DenverDeservesSidewalks is on a clear path to victory with "yes" votes at over 55%! More numbers are coming in, but we feel comfortable enough with our lead to call it. Now, let's celebrate!🚶🏽‍♀️🥂🥳
