Prop L won’t fix Muni. Muni is over $200 million in debt because of plunging ridership, mismanagement and a lack of accountability. San Franciscans deserve a well-funded, fully functioning public transportation system that meets the needs of all residents.
Prop L will only raise a small fraction of the funding Muni needs and lacks the oversight needed to hold Muni accountable. There's no mention of audits or citizen oversight to ensure our taxpayer money is spent wisely, leaving Muni's chronic problems unchecked.
Prop L will also increase the cost of living for vulnerable San Franciscans, especially seniors and disabled residents who rely on rideshares when Muni doesn't reach their neighborhoods. At a time when so many are struggling, this measure raises costs without fixing the underlying issues.
Prop L will increase taxes and make it harder for businesses to stay in San Francisco, where taxes are already much higher than in nearby cities.
Muni needs real reform, not a rushed measure that wastes time and money. Let’s work towards a better solution for San Francisco’s transit future. Vote No on Prop L.
