Hi friends!
Hope you had a lovely holiday! We’re back with your transportation package update, including briefings on the transportation package process from our campaign from coalition partner Front & Centered, as well as simple actions you can take today.
Two Upcoming Events:
Introduction to a Just Transition for Transportation in Washington
Attend this training to learn more about what transportation means to our communities, our environment, and for the 25% of people in Washington who can’t or don’t drive a private vehicle. Front & Centered’s transportation and land-use lead, Paulo Nunes-Ueno, will give an overview, take your questions, and share opportunities to get involved in advocacy efforts.

Ways to Take Action
- Endorse the Just Transition in Transportation as an individual, or on behalf of an organization, by signing on here! And even better, share with a friend!
- Spread the word about the harms of highways by hosting a Ramps to Nowhere viewing party with friends or a local community organization (your faith group, parent association, or even your bike shop or climbing gym!). Sign up here to learn more; we will support you and make it easy to host, we promise!
- In case you missed it, a recording of the Ramps to Nowhere panel discussion is available on YouTube.
So glad to have you on our team, working together for a green and equitable transportation system.
