#Albuquerque Is Throwing Out the Belongings of #Homeless People, Violating City Policy
The city has violated a court order and its own policies by discarding the personal property of thousands of homeless people, who have lost medications, birth certificates, IDs, treasured family photos and the ashes of loved ones.
Two of our city councilors in #Albuquerque are pushing a policy change that would demean and target immigrant workers & families instead of addressing root challenges in our city...
This is part of a larger push from political opportunists and MGA Re.publi.cans aligned with hard-right media & influencers... I also know it is bubbling up in many cities/towns, and it needs to be addressed head-on.
I’m in #albuquerque for a few days and really appreciate their free #bus service. Yeah, you can take the bus for free. Planned to take #publictransport anyway, but the zero cost is fantastic.
@BikeNYC#AltText: screenshot from a transit app of some type, showing the 50 bus route (from 2nd @ cooper) will take 36 mins to destination, and cost is free. Next option is to walk 5 (mins?) to the 36 bus at 5th @ Cooper, which will take 24 mins. Cost is also free.
Tonight I'm eating at The 377 Brewery in #Albuquerque#NewMexico and have acquired a burrito with some green chili. It's decent but a departure from much of the other New Mexican food I've had this week.
Tonight I ate at KūKri at the 505 Central Food Hall in downtown #Albuquerque#NewMexico and it was outstanding. The green chili fries were pretty spicy and I loved it. If I were to eat there again I would move up from medium to spicy.
