Then, the Atlanta Regional Commission says nearly two-million people will move to the Atlanta area by 2050. With $173 billion in federal, state, and local funds to spread among 20 counties, Executive Director & CEO Anna Roach says ARC is surveying residents on transportation priorities, with an intention to address climate change and equity.
Also, a decision from the U.S. Supreme Court is expected to end race-conscious admissions to our nation’s colleges and universities.
