We will not be attending the meeting as a group or gathering at the beginning of the meeting. We encourage anyone who is comfortable, to speak at the meeting because there needs to be more representation of transit riders. There are many issues with our public transit system and also many steps to make it accessible, safe and efficient. It begins with asserting our voices and understanding that we have every right and obligation to speak up. Does the board of directors really represent riders? Make your voice heard. Alicia will try to chalk or hold signs/banners outside of city hall at the end of the meeting, you are welcome to join or do your own thing. It was on December 2nd when we shared the experience of being forced off of MUNI even when the fare was paid. The safety demand was presented as a result of many instances of wrongdoing by SFMTA. We extended the deadline from January 2nd to January 31st 2026. We will not keep pushing it back. This safety demand is to prevent further negligent practices by SFMTA, especially toward vulnerable groups such as seniors, people with disabilities and unhoused people.
Proof of payment officers are not permitted to ask riders to get off of MUNI, to obstruct people’s movement, or to put their hands on people or their property. January 31st extended Deadline
