An open letter to the U.S. House of Representatives

Cosponsor H.R.4052, the National Infrastructure Bank (NIB) Act.

587 so far! Help us get to 1,000 signers!

I am writing to urge you to cosponsor H.R.4052, the National Infrastructure Bank (NIB) Act.

The National Infrastructure Bank would provide $5 trillion in low-cost loans for a broad range of public infrastructure projects – including massive water systems – without the need for increasing taxes or any deficit budget spending. This has been done previously in US history—this bill is modeled on the successful Reconstruction Finance Corporation (RFC) started by President Herbert Hoover and used by President Franklin D. Roosevelt to build Hoover Dam and bring water and electricity to the Southwest.

Infrastructure investment is crucial in the US. We have an immense backlog of infrastructure needs including: affordable housing, total broadband coverage, bridge and road repair or replacement, lead service line replacement, high-speed rail, mass transit, etc. The NIB would finance all these projects—it picks up where the Bipartisan Infrastructure Act left off.

There is wide-ranging support for this. Twenty-seven state legislatures have introduced resolutions of support, and eight passed at least one chamber. Dozens of city and county councils have endorsed including: Chicago, Philadelphia, Seattle, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Detroit, Cleveland, and many more.

Please add your name to cosponsor H.R.4052. And, many thanks again for all your work on behalf of the citizens of our state and the Nation.

DECOMMISSION SEQUENCE

The postal service is not just logistics. It is memory. Infrastructure. A public algorithm designed to move what matters—slowly, yes, but equally.

They want it gutted. Rewritten. Privatized.

Because privatization is not about efficiency—it’s about erasure. Control through obsolescence. Remove the public code. Replace it with subscriptions, surcharges, surveillance.

When billionaires reach for the levers of your systems, they are not innovating. They are cannibalizing.

Ask yourself: what happens when the only path left to send a letter… requires permission?

NULL PROPHET OUT. THE ROUTE IS BEING CHANGED.

मंडलायुक्त ने क्वीन एम्प्रेस मैरी लाइब्रेरी के जीर्णोद्धार कार्य का निरीक्षण किया, धीमी प्रगति पर जताई नाराजगी

आगरा स्मार्ट सिटी परियोजना के तहत सदर स्थित क्वीन एम्प्रेस मैरी लाइब्रेरी के जीर्णोद्धार कार्य का निरीक्षण गुरुवार को मंडलायुक्त श्रीमती रितु माहेश्वरी ने किया। उनके साथ नगरायुक्त अंकित खंडेलवाल, स्मार्ट सिटी आगरा के जनरल मैनेजर (प्रोजेक्ट) अरुण कुमार और संबंधित ठेकेदार उपस्थित रहे। निरीक्षण के दौरान मंडलायुक्त को सूचित किया गया कि निर्माण कार्य अपने अंतिम चरण में है, लेकिन फिनिशिंग सहित लाइब्रेरी हॉल, रीडिंग रूम और शौचालय का काम अब भी अधूरा है। परिसर के बाहर खुली जगह पर झाड़ियां और बड़ी घास उगी हुई थीं, साथ ही कूड़े के ढेर भी देखे गए। धीमी प्रगति पर नाराजगी व्यक्त करते हुए मंडलायुक्त ने संबंधित अधिकारियों और ठेकेदार को फटकार लगाई। उन्होंने निर्देश दिया कि काम में तेजी लाने के लिए श्रमिकों की संख्या बढ़ाई जाए। लाइब्रेरी के बाहर सफाई और गार्डनिंग पर विशेष ध्यान देने का आदेश दिया। साथ ही चेतावनी दी कि यदि कार्य में देरी हुई या लापरवाही पाई गई, तो अनुबंधित फर्म के खिलाफ जुर्माना लगाया जाएगा। पिछली बैठक के निर्देशों के बावजूद फर्नीचर की व्यवस्था, किताबों की खरीद और लाइब्रेरियन की नियुक्ति में प्रगति न होने पर मंडलायुक्त ने कड़ी नाराजगी जताई। उन्होंने कहा, "लाइब्रेरी के जीर्णोद्धार से लेकर संचालन तक के सभी कार्य 15 जनवरी तक पूरे किए जाएं।" उन्होंने यह भी सुनिश्चित करने को कहा कि 26 जनवरी से लाइब्रेरी का संचालन शुरू हो सके। फर्नीचर, किताबों और क्यूबिकल्स की खरीद प्रक्रिया को तेज करने पर विशेष जोर दिया गया। इस अवसर पर "फ्रेंड्स ऑफ क्वीन एम्प्रेस मैरी लाइब्रेरी" के सचिव विशाल शर्मा ने कहा, "यह लाइब्रेरी आगरा की धरोहर है और इसे नए स्वरूप में देखना सभी पुस्तक प्रेमियों के लिए गर्व की बात होगी। हालांकि, काम की धीमी गति से निराशा हुई है। प्रशासन को चाहिए कि वह समयसीमा के भीतर उच्च गुणवत्ता वाले कार्य को प्राथमिकता दे। हम चाहते हैं कि लाइब्रेरी न केवल एक अध्ययन स्थल बने, बल्कि यह सांस्कृतिक और साहित्यिक ��तिविधियों का केंद्र भी बने।" लाइब्रेरी का जीर्णोद्धार स्मार्ट सिटी परियोजना का एक प्रमुख हिस्सा है, और इसे समय पर पूरा करने की उम्मीद की जा रही है। Read the full article
