I am impeaching Secretary Kristi Noem, who is an incompetent leader and a disgrace to our democracy.

She wreaked havoc in the Chicagoland area and has brought her reign of terror to Minneapolis. One of her rogue ICE agents shot and killed an innocent woman today. It must come to an end.

Creating a military conflict with Venezuela gives this administration a legal "hook" to invoke the Alien Enemies Act. In other words, the foreign war is being manufactured in order to facilitate court deference for its domestic mass deportation policy. It's a Stephen Miller Special.

A truly historic day in California: a clean CEQA exemption for environmentally friendly infill housing has just passed the California legislature via the budget bill!

No other way to put it: this is the most transformative positive shift in land use policy in this state of the last 50 years!

Padilla: If this is how DHS responds to a senator with a question you can only imagine what they're doing to farm workers, to cooks, to day laborers out in the Los Angeles community and throughout California.

If you only care about the trees lost to development it isn't trees you actually care about
I hate whenever urban trees get cut down—it is a visceral loss, but let’s put the problem of tree canopy loss in perspective—in 5 years we lost less 0.025% of our tree canopy during development and could easily be offset w/new public trees.
It isn’t the biggest crisis we need to plan our future for.

Still too often I hear “families will never want to live downtown” or in urban places, ignoring contrary evidence from successful cities. It’s a self-fulfilling prophesy — we design downtowns to virtually repel families, and then when families don’t come, or don’t stay, we say “See? We were right!”

There are millions of Americans who are either in prison or are carrying felony charges for Marijuana. Biden should follow example of Maryland and pardon every one of them so they go free and records are expunged.

Will literally change lives and deeply affect the base especially black/latino men.

Zoning reform! Costs very little and city councils should upzone cities, support ADU’s, and build vertically when possible.
what’s the best bang for the buck for housing reforms that can be implemented at the local level? (iow what should i bully city council into doing?)
