DESCRIPTION:MUNI Riders & Drivers demand No Cuts & No Hikes! \n\nEven after approving a 
 devastating 10% reduction in MUNI services and price hikes for 
 “premium” passes, the MTA (Municpal Transportation Agency), which is in 
 charge of MUNI, announced their deficit is over $100 million for the next 
 two years!  The MTA’s solution? Proposing more cuts and more hikes!  
 \n\nNow, the MTA wants to declare a ‘Fiscal Emergency” for 2011-2012 in 
 order to avoid having to study the impact that MUNI cuts and hikes will 
 have on our communities and our environment. \n\nIn Sacramento, Regional 
 Transit officials in charge of public transit have also declared a 
 “Fiscal Emergency.”  The media reports that this move was a “key 
 step” towards the deep cuts that are expected in June.  One of our very 
 own MTA Board members, Cameron Beach, use to work for Sacramento RT and is 
 well informed of the action those officials have taken…we will not let 
 the MTA Board do what Beach’s colleagues did in Sacramento!  \n\nIt is 
 time to mobilize and demand a long-term solution to MUNI that doesn’t 
 divide our communities or force us to fight each other for left over 
 crumbs.  The economic crisis of the MTA and the entire city cannot be 
 solved on the backs of working and low-income families, seniors, or the 
 disabled.  MUNI Riders and Drivers United Against Cuts and Hikes! Chop from 
 the Top, Tax the Rich! \n\nDEMAND:\n\n• NO Cuts! NO Hikes!\n• Chop from 
 the Top, Tax the Rich!\n• Stop SFPD Attacks on MUNI!\n• Riders and 
 Drivers United for More Transit! \n\nMOBILIZE TO FIGHT BACK!\nMTA HEARING

 de MUNI demandan Alto a Recortes y Aumentos! \n\nDespués de haber aprobado 
 una reducción devastadora de 10% a servicios de MUNI y aumentos en pases 
 “de primera,” ¡el MTA (Agencia Municipal de Transportación), que se 
 encarga de MUNI, todavía anunció que su déficit de los siguientes dos 
 años es mas de $100 millones!  ¿La solución del MTA?  ¡Proponer mas 
 recortes y aumentos!  \n\nAhora,  El MTA quiere declarar una “Emergencia 
 Fiscal” durante el 2011 y 2012 para no tener que estudiar el impacto que 
 los recortes y aumentos a MUNI tendrá en nuestras comunidades y a nuestro 
 medio ambiente.  \n\nEs tiempo de movilizarnos y demandar una solución de 
 largo plazo a MUNI que no divide a nuestras comunidades ni nos forzar a 
 pelear entre nosotros por las migajas que sobran.  La crisis económica del 
 MTA y toda la ciudad no se solucionará sobre las espaldas de familias 
 trabajadoras y de bajo-ingresos, los ancianos, o los incapacitados.  
 ¡Conductores y Pasajeros de MUNI Unidos Contra Recortes y Aumentos!  
 ¡Mochen Desde Arriba, Cobren a los Ricos! \n\nDEMANDE:\n\n• ¡NO 
 Recortes! ¡NO Aumentos!\n• ¡Mochen desde Arriba, Cobren a los 
 Ricos!\n• ¡Alto a los Ataques del SFPD a MUNI!\n• ¡Pasajeros y
