We lost an icon yesterday.

Gloria Steinem built the modern feminist movement. She fought for equal representation in the workplace, gay rights, equal pay, and so much more.

Her courage, voice, and lifelong commitment to equality opened doors for generations of women and changed the world in ways that will never be forgotten.

May your legacy continue to inspire us to speak up, stand together, and keep fighting for a more just and equal future.

Rest in power Gloria Steinem.

This is how we make housing and transit work together.
