Proud to see investment in truly affordable housing on Jazz Hill along The Paseo. 1,300 new and renovated units of housing are planned near the Paseo corridor between 9th and 20th Street in the years ahead, retaining and welcoming back thousands of Kansas Citians.

We're addressing homelessness head-on in Denver, moving more than 1,500 people off the street and into supportive housing in under a year. Our team had a great talk with other leaders in homelessness, including USICHgov's Katy Miller, about working together to deepen our impact.

This week, I had an opportunity to meet with U.S. Department of Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg to discuss Lexington’s transportation needs. (1/2)

Reducing shootings and homicides by 20% in three years is an ambitious goal will take hard work, commitment, and perseverance. I believe in each of the individuals who are part of this initiative. Together, we will save lives.  #SaveLivesNow

Growing up, visiting the Mesa Public Library had a huge impact on my love of learning and community. That’s exactly what we’re celebrating with the groundbreaking of the new Gateway Library in Eastmark. I know this will be a wonderful asset to the community!

🚨Today, I announced my summer safety plan. Safety this summer is my top priority.

Operation Heatwave will target crime hot spots, enhance traffic enforcement and community engagement and use an all of government approach to curb crime. news5cleveland.com/news/local-new…

Federal infrastructure funds are flowing. My thoughts on how we strengthen the capacity of locals to use them. TIME time.com/6977919/americ…

Federal infrastructure legislation has dedicated $1.2 trillion-plus in critical aid.

Thousands of municipalities have an opportunity tackle their urgent needs & build their way to prosperity.

But the job is hardly finished. How to fix America’s infrastructure, once and for all:

Tonight, the Senate will vote on a resolution to cancel regulations finalized by Treasury Department on the deployment of resources under the American Rescue Plan Act. Passage of SJ Resolution 57 would add tremendous uncertainty for local governments. usmayors.org/2024/05/15/urg…
