Congratulations Riders, on helping us get Measure L passed!

Measure L has all but passed! With only slightly over 5,800 votes left to count, Measure L is passing with 71.7% of the vote, guaranteeing its passage.

At no point in the campaign did this result feel assured. Multiple polls put L significantly down from the 2/3rds it needed to pass. However, thanks to volunteers like you, we turned that around! Every little thing helps win a campaign like this. Literature drops and GOTV efforts are vital, but so is every window sign, social media post, and conversation with a friend or neighbor. A massive, huge thank you to everyone who spread the word that a “Yes” vote on L helps keep all of our critical transit services in San Francisco running!

We’re not done. At Tuesday's MTA Board Meeting, SFMTA Director Jeffery Tumlin talked about the operational fiscal cliff the agency faces in 2025. While we need a local revenue source for operations, this challenge isn’t unique to SFMTA and MUNI, and Bay Area agencies are gearing up for a joint effort via the Metropolitan Transportation Commission to seek state funding to bridge the gap. The San Francisco Transit Riders will be engaging at both the local and regional levels.

As mentioned above, more needs to be done to make sure that our transit continues to get better. As one of the leading transit rider advocacy organization in San Francisco, we empower everyday transit riders to raise their collective voices to advocate for pro-rider policies. We do this through our working groups, which you can join today!

Working groups are exclusive to our members, but a gentle reminder that any donation amount gets you a year membership with SFTR. Become a member and raise your voice today!
