Great morning in a great city. Had the pleasure of meeting a few members of #LIUNA Local 147 AKA #Sandhogs. They are the tunnel diggers who build the foundations of #NYC buildings & bridges you use everyday!

And didn’t pay hundreds of union #sandhogs millions of $$$ to sit around and do nothing. If @ElonMusk was able to dig NYC Hudson River tunnels, costs would drop by 80%. Need this sort of pragmatism in rebuilding @NYCTSubway, not “how can we line pockets of unions & consultants.”

Walked full length of Boring Co tunnel under LA tonight. Disturbingly long. On track for opening party Dec 10. Will be very one-dimensional.

The Germans have this right: “Organization before electronics before concrete.” Why building trains in New York costs more than any other city https://t.co/0mLOLpwmDh via @nypmetro #nyc #mta #sandhogs #commuting #Union #NewYork #NewJersey #expensive #efficiency #taxes @ChrisCuomo
