just saw the news about the Gateway tunnel project getting unfrozen... it's crazy how one admin decision can cause so much harm to thousands of workers and commuters who are counting on this project for their livelihoods and daily commutes . guess you could say we dodged a huge economic bullet ! anyway, it's always wild how politics can impact everyday life in a major way ...
so like finally some good news about the Gateway tunnel thingy ! it's been stuck in limbo for ages and it's crazy how one judge can just swoop in and say "hey, unfreeze the cash" judge vargas is a lifesaver (no pun intended, since it's an underwater tunnel system) for all those workers who lost their jobs because of trump's funding freeze . and let's be real, the Gateway project is like, super important we need new tunnels so we can move trains faster and stuff . anyway, it's nice to see some positive news for once
finally something good comes out of this whole mess... like I was saying to my friend last week , can't believe the White House tried to pull this stunt... I mean, who freezes $16 billion on a project just because there's a disagreement over immigration policies? it's just not that hard to find common ground, right? and good for the states' AGs for taking matters into their own hands - at least someone's looking out for the workers who lost their jobs. and yeah, the Gateway project is kinda a big deal... I've lived near Penn Station long enough to know how much it affects my daily commute glad this is all getting resolved quickly so we can finally get some decent train service around here
can't believe this took so long to happen ! the thought of millions of dollars just sitting there not being used because of some politics is crazy . i mean i get it, immigration policies can be super contentious but come on, let's think about the people who lost their jobs and the commuters who are getting screwed by this whole thing . now that funding has been reopened, workers can finally get back to work and the project can move forward . it's days like these that make me wanna be even more active in trying to bring about change .
