While many of us are enjoying #LaborDay as a day off, farm workers are laboring in the fields. Yesi sent this pic while working in the sweet potatoes in Merced County CA. They work for minimum wage while bringing this vegetable to our tables. #WeFeedYou

The vision: fast, reliable, accessible buses and trains, car free downtowns, native trees to protect us from extreme heat, protected bike lanes. All of this, everywhere! Let's build the Green New Deal for Transportation! climateandcommunity.org/a-gnd-for-tran…

Everyone would be as happy as Elise Joshi is if we passed the GND for transportation! We need to: ⚡️Eliminate fossil fuels + electrify public sector 🚶🏻Reduce resource intensity of transpo + create walkable communities 📜 Develop equity with transpo policy climateandcommunity.org/a-gnd-for-tran…

If China can do it, so can we. Let’s build #HighSpeedRail nationwide. 🚅🇺🇸
