Really exciting to be in this room today—it was moving to hear from people from so many different sectors (including nurse and @Montgomery4All member Chris Vroome!) that we need housing action now.

Kudos to lead sponsors @Andrew_Friedson and @NataliFGonzalez for leading the way!

[Carrie Kisicki @cmkisicki]

✨this is what’s so exciting about bus lanes: “a low-cost project that has a high impact on the communities it serves!”
