September 1, SF: Muni Fare Strike
MUNI plans to raise the adult fare from $1.25 to $1.50 Raise Youth, Senior and Disabled Fares from 35 cents to 50 cents. Lay off 200 drivers and cut runs on 41 lines
NO MUNI FARE HIKE! NO MUNI SERVICE CUTS!
While politicians pick the pockets of MUNI riders, they give away millions to downtown corporations, and pay MUNI director Michael Burns $280,000 per year. MUNI wants us to PAY MORE to WAIT LONGER. We say NO WAY!
If MUNI raises the fare on September 1, as now planned, we should respond with a FARE STRIKE. In a fare strike, passengers ride the bus, but do not pay the fare.
Fare strikes work. Last year, a fare strike in Chicago prevented a planned fare hike. In 1998, a fare strike in Los Angeles stopped a fare hike and pressured LA to buy more busses to reduce overcrowding.
Working class people, students, seniors and the disabled depend on MUNI. Together we can stop the fare hike and service cuts.
For more information call 415-648-1904 or email MuniFareStrike [at] yahoo.com
Please pass this on.
