Transit is essential to solving the climate crisis. In California, over 40% of emissions come from the transportation sector. Unfortunately, transit agencies are struggling because of the COVID-19 pandemic. Agencies are planning cuts and Caltrain is considering a complete shutdown if new revenue isn’t secured. Measure RR will prevent the shutdown of Caltrain and by creating new revenue for Caltrain.
Please join us at our Environmental Forum on Friday, October 2nd at 12pm to learn more about this important measure and how it will help us achieve our climate and environmental goals.
