It’s time to make transit equitable, safe, and reliable for all of us. And when Big Business and billionaire CEOs pay their fair share to fund transit we all move forward.

 

We’re Bay Area Forward.  A people-powered transit alliance led by labor, transit riders and advocates, and climate, bike and pedestrian groups dedicated to strengthening and modernizing Bay Area public transportation.

Bay Area Transit is Headed Backwards — It’s Time to Move Forward

Without new and consistent revenue sources, local transit agencies face steep deficits and massive service cuts, leading to widespread congestion and delays that will affect us all. Most impacted will be the seniors and working folks who count on Bay Area transit options to get to vital destinations every day. We owe it to all of us to move the Bay Area forward.

When Big Business Pays Its Fair Share to Fund Transit the Bay Area Moves Forward

Today, the legislature is considering SB 63, a needed but flawed bill that would place a sales tax measure on the 2026 ballot to fund transit.

The problem is that sales tax hurts small businesses, seniors and working people — the people it’s supposed to be helping. And a sales tax won’t come close to raising the revenue we need to solve the crisis.

The Solution?

We’re urging the State Legislature to solve California's transit crisis by changing SB 63 from a sales tax into a gross receipts tax on big businesses — and shifting the burden away from ordinary working people and small businesses to the billionaire CEOs and big corporations raking in record profits.
