Friday Video: Welcome to the War on ‘Woke’ Transportation

Overwhelmed by weeks of federal attacks on green and equitable transportation? Catch up with this explainer and plug in to the fight.

The first seven weeks of the Trump administration — yes, we can't believe there have only been seven, either — have been a whirlwind of chaotic news that can be hard to take in all at once.

Check it out, and listen up for not one, but three different Streetsblog shoutouts.
