The Week in Short Videos

The embeds below are from TikTok, but you can view our other videos at Instagram, Facebook Reels, and YouTube Shorts.

This week, Streetsblog California posted four videos to our social media channels, including one earlier today announcing Streetsblog’s endorsement of Proposition 50 to the video watching world.

On Wednesday, we did a short-video promoting the StreetSmart podcast with Zack Deutsch-Gross wrapping up the recently completed legislative session.

What is the federal government going to do with money stolen from California High Speed Rail? Give it to states with “high rates of birth and marriage.”#streetsblogcalifornia #highspeedrailway #usdot
