Call top decision makers now and tell them to save transit! |

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 and the top legislative leaders 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! |
