There are 150K+ ballots to count and Prop L needs more Yes votes than Prop M in order to prevail, but we’ve won 56% of early votes across a wide geographic base. Support for transit funding in San Francisco is strong, our coalition is determined, and our work is just beginning.

We are so proud of our volunteer team who showed up these last seven months to fight for Muni. Hundreds of us gathered over 17,000 signatures to put Prop L on the ballot, knocked 11,000 doors, and won broad political support in the face of over $1M in opposition.

San Francisco voters may tax Uber to help struggling Muni system San Francisco voters could slap a tax on ride-hail companies like Uber and Lyft to fund the city's Muni system, which is facing a huge deficit and the possibility of service cuts.

Muni’s $227 deficit β€œthreatens future service...Riders and drivers are already getting hit. In May, the SFMTA announced it would reduce discounts for Muni riders and increase parking fines to lessen the deficit. Enter Prop L.”

β€œSafe, clean, and accessible transit with robust service, especially for our city’s workers, and equitable funding is a priority for me. Prop L does all of this, so it’s a no-brainer!

On a crowded ballot, Prop L β€œhas support from the vast majority of the city’s political establishment, including former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and four of the five leading mayoral candidates.”

One of those candidates is the current mayor, London Breed.

A new tax on Uber and Lyft Ride-hailing companies and public transit advocates are duking it over a ballot measure to tax Uber and Lyft to help fund San Francisco’s struggling public transit system.

β€œAs transit agencies face this fiscal cliff,” Prop L could be β€œa playbook for transit advocates in other cities desperate to save bus lines and services at risk of being cut,” according to Politico.
