No other city has embarked on a project of this magnitude in a way that learns from the mistakes of the past and makes, real meaningful investments to ensure equitable outcomes. #ProjectConnect #ATXSOTC — PolitiTweet.org
Mayor Adler @MayorAdler
We must ensure that the very communities we intend to serve with improved transit are actually able to keep living in those areas once the improvements are in place. #ATXSOTC — PolitiTweet.org
Mayor Adler @MayorAdler
We must acknowledge that major transportation investments in our past have done more to deepen inequality, to segregate rather than connect, to displace rather than benefit. We must learn from that painful past and ensure we do not repeat those injustices. #ATXSOTC — PolitiTweet.org
Mayor Adler @MayorAdler
With light rail, a downtown transit tunnel to speed up travel, no matter what vehicular mode you choose, new MetroRapid lines and vehicles, and a transition to a zero-emissions fleet, #ProjectConnect will connect our entire city, creating new opportunity for Austinites. #ATXSOTC — PolitiTweet.org
Mayor Adler @MayorAdler
#ProjectConnect is a bold transit plan for the just and accessible city we aspire to be. It certainly addresses traffic, but it will do so much more #ATXSOTC — PolitiTweet.org
Mayor Adler @MayorAdler
In our community, far too many of the people most in need of affordable, reliable, rapid transportation to meet their daily needs and improve their lives don’t have it. #ATXSOTC — PolitiTweet.org
Mayor Adler @MayorAdler
We know that 38% of our homeless population is Black – over 4 times greater than the demographics of the County as a whole. When we work to end homelessness, we are also doing the important work of addressing the symptoms of racial injustice. #ATXSOTC — PolitiTweet.org
Mayor Adler @MayorAdler
The scale of resources to end homeliness is great, but the solutions are real and achievable. #ATXSOTC — PolitiTweet.org
Mayor Adler @MayorAdler
Having chosen this more just path, though, & having rejected the false promise of cosmetic fixes, our work is incomplete unless we follow through with the commitment to house the homeless. #ATXSOTC — PolitiTweet.org
Mayor Adler @MayorAdler
To the people that signed on to the petition because they were desperate for a solution for people experiencing homelessness, I want to say that I share your impatience. #ATXSOTC — PolitiTweet.org
Mayor Adler @MayorAdler
I’m thankful that this community rejected calls to return to a time when we asked the police to harass the least fortunate so that we could avert our attention from their needs, while doing little to resolve their plight. #ATXSOTC — PolitiTweet.org
Mayor Adler @MayorAdler
I am proud that this community has embraced the discomfort that comes with big challenges, and that we are working together on real solutions to homelessness – to end it, not just address it. #ATXSOTC — PolitiTweet.org
Mayor Adler @MayorAdler
Austin has the opportunity, the need, obligation and responsibility, to move decisively to end homelessness in our community. #ATXSOTC — PolitiTweet.org
Mayor Adler @MayorAdler
We get to decide if COVID-19 is ultimately remembered as an historical backdrop on our city’s march to address justice, race, and inequities as we have never done before, or whether the meanness and destruction of the virus becomes the dominant memory. #ATXSOTC — PolitiTweet.org
Mayor Adler @MayorAdler
Our history as a city and a country is one of responding to crisis with innovation, generational investments and finding the will to correct our mistakes. #ATXSOTC — PolitiTweet.org
Mayor Adler @MayorAdler
Like the mirror that doesn’t lie, this crisis is laying bare injustices that have long been too easy to ignore. We just haven’t dealt with it. #ATXSOTC — PolitiTweet.org
Mayor Adler @MayorAdler
This view of the virus and of our city through the lens of justice and race is one we should not and cannot close our eyes to. We can see it everywhere around us and in everything we do. #ATXSOTC — PolitiTweet.org
Mayor Adler @MayorAdler
Our stay-at-home mandate revealed the housing insecurity of hundreds of thousands among us. COVID-19 made it clear how many “essential” workers lack access to the essentials. #ATXSOTC — PolitiTweet.org
Mayor Adler @MayorAdler
COVID-19 is also a moral challenge. In many ways, it makes this moment even bigger than all of that. COVID-19 isn’t just killing people, its impacts are disproportionately felt by communities of color. #ATXSOTC — PolitiTweet.org
Mayor Adler @MayorAdler
Congress needs to pass CARES II and it needs to provide support to cities so we can help ourselves. #ATXSOTC — PolitiTweet.org
Mayor Adler @MayorAdler
Many of our neighbors don’t know how they’re going to feed their families or whether they’ll be evicted from their homes. Tenants struggle with rent; homeowners and landlords struggle with mortgage payments. #ATXSOTC — PolitiTweet.org
Mayor Adler @MayorAdler
This virus is more than just an attack on our physical health, it’s also a devastating blow to our economic health. Unemployment is at unimaginable levels. Businesses have shuttered -- some temporarily and some lost forever. #ATXSOTC — PolitiTweet.org
Mayor Adler @MayorAdler
Today, it appears we’re in a plateau. That’s better than a surge – but still dangerous. The virus is real and the infectivity in our community is still too high. You want to open businesses and schools? Drive down the infection rate further than we are now. #ATXSOTC — PolitiTweet.org
Mayor Adler @MayorAdler
Truth is, the virus was never gone. It just hides... waiting for us to invite it back into our lives. #ATXSOTC — PolitiTweet.org
Mayor Adler @MayorAdler
We tried to open businesses as they had operated pre-virus... as if the virus was gone. Leaders at the national and state levels gave destructive or ambiguous messages about what we needed to do to prevent a surge. And so the virus came roaring back. #ATXSOTC — PolitiTweet.org
Mayor Adler @MayorAdler
We all want the local economy--and our lives--back as we knew them. #ATXSOTC — PolitiTweet.org

#ATXSOTC thread: So here we are now, confronting challenges unlike anything we’ve ever seen before. Where do we begin? In times of such great uncertainty, what should be our guiding light? I think we begin with -- and look to -- “justice.” — PolitiTweet.org
