Register here to phone bank for Proposition 15 to help save public transit.
Bay Area transit riders have a chance to fight austerity head on by voting Yes on Prop. 15 on the November ballot. Prop. 15 closes a corporate property tax loophole that allows commercial landlords and large corporations, including Chevron, Disney and large tech companies, to pay low taxes on their real estate. Importantly Prop. 15 would add significant revenues to the Bay Area's local governments and transit agencies.
If Prop. 15 passes:- SFMTA would receive an additional $45 million per year
- AC Transit would receive an additional $30 million per year
- BART would receive an additional $5 million per year
- All nine Bay Area Counties would see hundreds of millions of additional dollars per year which could be used to support local transit agencies
For these reasons, join us in phone banking for Prop 15.
