This is powerful.

Highlighting the speaker who stood in front of the Surprise mayor and told him to consider what the Mayor of Ohrdruf must’ve thought before he died by suicide: “He might have thought ‘how is this my fault I had no jurisdiction over this’ maybe he said ‘this site was not subject to local zoning.’”

One terrible wrong made right. So many more to go.

To all the Minnesotans who are making their voices heard and protesting peacefully:

The world is watching, and when change comes, it will be because of you.

East Side Providence people: please know and share that the City is enforcing alternate side parking starting at 12:01 am on Monday 2/2 to facilitate trash/recycling pickup. More info here: mailchi.mp/jilldavidson...

I truly thought it was no longer. I guess it's almost no longer.

Happy birthday! 🎉

Inundation Infrastructure: City and Community Provide New Solutions for Flooding in Providence - ecoRI News The severity of flood events is largely the result of two major infrastructural flaws: the city’s outdated sewage and stormwater system and a rise in the number of impervious surfaces.

Excited to see the ongoing work to address flooding in our city getting discussed.

As we see more frequent and intense storms, it’s imperative we address root infrastructure solutions - not just nibble around the edges with bandaid ‘solutions’.

Judge Strikes Down Trump’s Latest Effort to Stop Offshore Wind

Again with this. Trump failed twice to stop Revolution Wind, creating ridiculous delays to critically needed energy innovation. 58 of 65 wind turbines are installed, and it should have been fully operational by the 2nd half of 2026, delivering power to 350,000+ customers in CT & RI by year’s end.
