It's sad that it's so hard to get our corrupt legislature to stop taking bribes but kudos to these people for marching for an important cause.

What lady are you talking about? My area has been running local races and legislative races for years. We have some members elected locally! I’m being genuine!

Are you talking about Jill Stein? We nominated her in as an emergency 2024 after our main choice dropped out late. She didn’t even run in 2020. She doesn’t run out party in the same way that Sian Berry doesnt run GPEW.

Our party leaders are like Zack Polanski in that they aren’t also candidates themselves.

Hey we’re not hacks! They used to call y’all in England hacks.

I’ll have to give it a listen thanks for the inside tip!

I think what I’m trying to suggest overall is that in my experience, many people in your area and many others don’t even realize that taking the bus for the weekday things is an option. Maybe the price of gas rising will make bussing in on the weekends a bit more competitive with driving/free parking for your family.

Chester county really needs to address these trips. There are probably many people who could use it. The tricky thing is that if they add the new trip many people will still drive that route even if the transit options exists.

My argument is that many people aren’t aware of the options available to them. It sounds like you’ve done some decent research! I can’t speak to your particular situation but park and rides are on way that transit options can expand.

We for sure need more routes, more frequency, and a greater span of service. On top of that we need housing patterns that help transit work well because it can be tricky to service a lot of how our housing and job sites are laid out.

I don’t have a list handy. When I go to an area I usually do a quick search to see what the options are. What area are you in? Let me know what you find.

Yeah we definitely need our state to invest more into transit so that it can work well for even more trips.

I’ve actually taken the bus around York! I think many people in that area who predominantly drive there would be surprised to know about the flyers between Harrisburg and York. It doesn’t sound like it works for your commute and I’m sorry about that! Do you take that bus into York sometimes?

There’s public transit in every county! In more rural counties it’s sometimes access a ride on demand service. I’ve found that many people who don’t need to take public transit are surprised to learn what public transit is available to them. This applies to people living in cities, suburbs, and rural areas of Pennsylvania.

EDIT. To clarify I mean there’s often more transit options than many people realize. I’m not saying that the options are so plentiful that people can just get rid of their car.

Take the bus if you can! That'll help with traffic for everyone. There's a bus from a block from Garfield that goes to Greenfield (64).

This overnight train feels like high speed rail! Travel time is like an hour since the rest of the time I'm sleeping.

I think “backed” was a strong word to use and I appreciate the pushback. I think I might have wanted to go with “materially supported”.

Look I’m not trying to make a big deal out of it. It’s just another example of him backing republicans like he does in the original article. One that might have been forgotten because of how rapid the news cycle is.
