[ClimatePlan @climateplan]

Powerful op-ed in today's @sfchronicle: "Adding freeway lanes doesn’t fix traffic. Why does California keep wasting billions on it?" CA set to throw $1.25B on projects that won't relieve traffic, but will hurt climate. https://t.co/9K8wZoOCln

[Hana Creger @hanacreger]

The state of California has a $30 billion transportation budget. The lion’s share goes to highways. Meanwhile, the state is on the verge of cutting funds for public transit. Tell your legislators that this is unacceptable and to fund public transit.

[Hana Creger @hanacreger]

The Clean RIDES Network is launching with 100+ organizations to fight for clean, affordable, and accessible transportation options for all.

States have the power to lead. We’re here to help them do it.

[California Transit Association @CalTransit]

This morning, Exec. Director @mpimentel88 represented the Association at the @MoveCAFWD California Economic Summit in Sacramento. The panel, featuring @CA_Trans_Agency, @hanacreger of @greenlining, @The_CALCOG, and @CAMobility, covered a range of topics, all centered on the need to fund a sustainable transportation future.

[Hana Creger @hanacreger]

#AB2086 is officially law! CA will now have more transparency into how state transportation $$ supports outcomes in equity, climate, & more. This is an essential step toward accountability for #BIPOC and low-income communities.

[Greenlining @Greenlining]

(2/2) Gratitude to #AB2086 author @AsmPilarSchiavo and bill co-sponsor @TransForm_Alert for their work with us, @CAgovernor & #CALeg to build a more just & equitable transportation future.

[SPUR @SPUR_Urbanist]

Today, the CA Assembly Transportation Committee can make roads safer for people walking and biking, and make #transit more reliable. #VoteYes on #SB960 (@Scott_Wiener) to save lives and move toward a future where families can get by with one car instead of two.

[Hana Creger @hanacreger]

Niche topic, widespread implications. If done right, charging drivers to use the roads has the potential to advance equity, reduce climate emissions, and finance a modern, multi-modal transportation system.

[Greenlining @Greenlining]

On Thursday 05/23 in Miami, FL, Greenlining’s Associate Director of Climate Equity @hanacreger will speak at the Road User Charging Conference USA on advancing equity & community engagement in the design & impact of road user charging.

A huge step forward in our government prioritizing the health and well-being of low-income communities of color.

[Greenlining @Greenlining]

#AB2535: Invest in Clean Air Act passed thru the #CALeg Assembly Transportation Committee yesterday. Big thanks to author @AsmMiaBonta & committee chair @AsmLoriDWilson for their collaborative work along with our partners @NRDC @TransForm_Alert @CBECal.

[Hana Creger @hanacreger]

One step closer to meeting our climate and equity goals. Especially heartening to see #AB2086 passed with unanimous, bipartisan support -- transparency and accountability are collective, good governance values.

[Greenlining @Greenlining]

Additionally, #AB2086 by Asm @Pilar4CA passed the Transportation Committee with bipartisan support, and #AB2401 authored by Asm @PhilTing passed through the Natural Resources Committee, chaired by Asm Bryan, also with bipartisan support.

Next up: Asm Appropriations Committee!

[Hana Creger @hanacreger]

Check out this new report that @TamikaButler and I collaborated on. Reforming the system to center equity is not just about the policy and technical details, it requires a foundation of meaningful collaboration and relationship building.

[Greenlining @Greenlining]

NEW REPORT: @TamikaButler and Greenlining interviewed & surveyed nearly 50 stakeholders w/ experience working with State DOTs.

[Hana Creger @hanacreger]

Climate & equity goals are only as good as they are implemented. To hold California accountable, we need AB 2086 to become law.

[Greenlining @Greenlining]

Last Friday, Asm Pilar Schiavo announced the intro of #AB2086, which will create transparency & accountability in CA transportation investments. We are proud to co-sponsor this vital legislation w/

One more example of why we need much greater transparency and accountability of transportation spending.

@jeanww is the hero that Caltrans needed, but didn't deserve. We need massive reform and accountability.

[San Francisco Chronicle @sfchronicle]

OPINION: "Caltrans leaders believe they are widening highways in the public interest despite decades of research proving otherwise. Some of them even believe they know what the public wants better than the people themselves," writes Jeanie Ward-Waller. https://t.co/PJq2lS8SBb

[Hana Creger @hanacreger]

A national scandal. We need accountability. https://t.co/gwyUDyrx9y
