Tony, a Monterey Parks employee, was one of many people who used the bike-and-ride option of Monterey-Salinas Transit to get to the MST bus stop on Del Monte at Camino Aguajito in Monterey today. This was a very convenient bus stop for people going to Window on the Bay Park for the #NoKings gathering.

"The study suggests, among other ideas, that the trolley could be expanded beyond summer months and utilized to connect not just #Monterey and P.G. [#PacificGrove], but even more of the #MontereyPeninsula, creating a #CarFree way to get around.”— @pammarino #MontereyCountyNow https://www.montereycountynow.com/blogs/opinion_blog/expanding-trolley-service-is-just-an-idea-for-now-but-it-should-be-pursued/article_31f82d12-7b88-48be-8d01-ba2c4cb0b975.html

**Donald Trump and Elon Musk think this country belongs to them.** We are fighting back! They're taking everything they can get their hands on—our health care, our data, our jobs, our services—and daring the world to stop them. This is a crisis, and the time to act is now. 🚨 **On Saturday, April 5th, we're taking to the streets to fight back with a clear message: Hands off!** 🚨 This mass mobilization day is our message to the world that we do not consent to the destruction of our government and our economy for the benefit of Trump and his billionaire allies. Alongside Americans across the country, we are marching, rallying, and protesting to demand a stop the chaos and build an opposition movement against the looting of our country. A core principle behind all Hands Off! events is a commitment to nonviolent action. We expect all participants to seek to de-escalate any potential confrontation with those who disagree with our values. Check out handsoff2025.com for more information.
