Vote YES for Prop L, Let’s Fund the Bus!

The Board of Directors of the San Francisco Bicycle Coalition has voted to endorse Prop L, Fund the Bus! (formerly the ComMUNIty Transit Act), a ballot measure which aims to increase funding for Muni. 

Prop L proposes to use revenue from a new business tax on ride-hail companies to prevent Muni service cuts and improve Muni access to public schools, libraries, and parks. Funding can also be used to fund discount programs for youth, seniors, people with disabilities, and people with low incomes. 

Board member Joanna Gubman, who has been an active volunteer with the Fund the Bus! campaign, says: “By voting for Prop L, we’re saying yes, we love our vibrant, diverse city. And yes, our public transportation system is actually one of the best in the country – and it’s worth doing everything we can to sustain it.” 

Transit-friendly cities are bike-friendly cities! People who walk, transit riders, and people on bikes have the same goals for San Francisco – we all want a people-first, climate-resilient and economically vibrant city, where everyone from young students to senior citizens can rely on public transit to get around safely and conveniently. 

This is the second ballot measure our Board has endorsed this year; in June, we were proud to be among the first organizations to endorse Ocean Beach Park, now known as Prop K. As the Bike the Vote 2024 season heats up, we’ll reach out to members and volunteers to help spread the word on our endorsements and get out the vote to support a more sustainable and accessible future for San Francisco.
