Tell the state leaders who are negotiating the budget and tell them firmly: “We NEED transit.”

JOIN US IN RAISING OUR VOICE BEFORE JUNE 15!

Public transportation systems across California are facing major budget shortfalls in the aftermath of the pandemic. If not addressed with state funding, agencies will be forced to implement devastating, potentially irrecoverable service cuts that pose a devastating threat to California’s future.

We need to burn up the phone lines of Governor Newsom, Budget Chairs Ting and Skinner, Senate President Pro Tem Atkins, and Assembly Speaker Rendon to let them know they must provide finding to save public transportation by the June 15 midnight budget deadline. Please call now and share on social media to let everyone know who you called!

We are hearing that the media coverage, calls, and letters are putting pressure on budget negotiators. So let’s keep it up! Call during office hours if you can.

If you can’t make phone calls, put pressure on our elected leaders to listen to us by sending an email!

SFTR has an email all ready for you, just click below to personalize and send! Let’s remind our leaders that losing public transit will hurt all San Franciscans, but especially those who rely on public transit to get around. Addressing Muni’s severe financial crisis must be at the core of any solution for a more sustainable, accessible and equitable city. With critical cuts to transit expected to go into effect as soon as this year, we cannot wait for this to go to the ballot three years from now.
