It’s great seeing more and more transit advocates get elected to lead our cities!
Y'all, let me say how incredibly proud I am of my friend @SarahZBeeson for winning her seat on the Roswell City Council. For the last decade I've organized alongside her with @georgiayds, @redclaydems, and @AdvanceATL and I know that Roswell is a much better place because of her.

It’s the most wonderful time of the year! MARTA elves welcomed riders on our holiday-wrapped buses to enjoy a free ride! Look out for a #MARTASurpriseRide in your neighborhood all December long!

Tomorrow is one more Election Day, Georgia! The most important thing we can do to get better transit is vote for pro-transit officials. We support Sarah Beeson in her candidacy for Roswell city council! She’ll be a transit champion for all when elected! Good luck, Sarah!

The City of Atlanta has a long, rich history rooted in the railroads since its first founding days as Terminus, and in that spirit, I'm proud to introduce a resolution encouraging AMTRAK's establishment, expansion, and investment in the Gulch.

#TransitEquityDay is observed Feb. 4 to commemorate Civil Rights leader #RosaParks and her unfinished work to end inequities in #Transportation. Council member @jasonsdozier tells us how he's using his experience on #publictransit to improve policy in #Atlanta. #BlackHistoryMonth

Completely forgot to post the obligatory #TransitEquityDay bus selfie. Shout out to @MARTAservice for the easy breezy ride on the #155 through Pittsburgh. Buses are the life blood of the MARTA system and I'm proud to support this critical part of our city. #TakeTransitATL – at Atlanta, GA
Today is #TransitEquityDay and I thank my colleagues who co-sponsored my resolution acknowledging today's importance. But our challenges are year-round and that means year-round work to guarantee safe and accessible transit access for all Atlantans. Here's what's at stake.
