Over 60 bus riders joined us last night to discuss their dreams for KC’s buses at our very first BUS RIDERS TOWN HALL 🎉🎉 It was a powerful evening full of frustrations with the way things are and HOPE for the future we can build when we are united 🫂

Does anyone want to do this in Kansas City

Jeffery Tompkins@JATompkins

In Indianapolis, for $40, locals are building benches where they’re most needed throughout the city - without costly engagement or consultants.

Why are we heavily subsidizing the boiling of our planet? We should be taxing the shit out of it. Our planet so cooked, man

The lack of bus stop infrastructure around KC continues to put us a risk. There ✨used✨ to be a bench at Troost and 49th. We know KCATA & KCPD remove benches along bus lines. This action is causing direct harm to bus riders and neighbors needing a respite from the heat!

💥The SECOND bench from our summer build is officially DROPPED💥 As we continue facing a brutal heatwave, it is important that we continue to show up for our neighbors. Which is why these benches are happening and why we are passing out ice waters at bus stops this afternoon.

We canvassed the neighborhood closest to where the project is proposed and found strong opposition from community members. Here are links to Instagram posts where you can see some of what we’ve done: instagram.com/reel/DJsQeivp5… instagram.com/p/DJDDX1SJuKJ/…

Speak out against Mayor Lucas’ “plan”: Send an email demanding KCMO City Council fully-fund buses, Vision Zero, AND bikeshare: p2a.co/KE6ZYQQ (s/o @BikeWalkKC for uplifting this!) Join us this Tuesday at 10:30am at KCMO City Hall (or Zoom) to give public testimony. 3/3

The money is there to fully fund all of these programs – Over $11m of our Public Mass Transportation sales tax dollars are being siphoned off to fund road resurfacing and traffic signal projects – things that benefit motorists, NOT bus riders. 2/3

On top of this, data centers destroy our planet and drive up utility prices. We need good schools, transit, housing, jobs, and food for our people. At a time when Kansas Citians struggle to make ends meet, it is outrageous for PortKC to prioritize lining billionaire’s pockets.

Big win in Kansas City last night. Brittany Foley — a 29-year-old working class Black mom who raised only $1800 — just defeated millionaire donors & developers. She campaigned for green schools and against policies that would give school district funding to cops and jails.
