I offer my #TransitEquity amendment which would quadruple transit funding without cutting highways, to highlight that we do not have to operate in a zero-sum game. We do not have to remain tied to over 60-year-old formulas to fund our infrastructure.
My amendment seeks parity between highways and transit funding and allows us to think about what could be with increased access to affordable transportation for ALL our communities.
Imagine:
Increased access to jobs, especially for Black, Brown, and working class people
More connectivity for city suburbs & exurbs
Improved walkability and & potential transit access in small towns
Reduced greenhouse gas emissions
We need to start a conversation about how our cities & our towns might look if we actually INVESTED in our transit systems. We need to reframe our work in @transportdems as a critical component of the fight for social justice & equity for everyone. Black, Brown, Rural, or Urban.
