Dear HOPE BEAT members,
Below is an invitation for the Genesis Town Hall Event that will bring hundreds of families, bus riders and youth together to call on our elected officials to make AC Transit free for students and demand equal funding for our bus systems, so we can restore cuts to service.
Join me!
Thursday July 14th at 6:30pm at First Congregational Church in Oakland (2501 Harrison Street) to demand that Alameda County spends a portion of its $10 billion in transportation dollars to:
- provide every Middle and High School Student in Alameda County with a free bus pass (to get to school and afterschool activities)
- more funding for AC Transit so it doesn't have to cut more service and so it can restore the 15% of service it cut last year
We expect County Supervisor Keith Carson and other members of the Alameda County Transportation Commission to be there to hear our call for a just and equitable transportation plan for the county.
Questions? Call me or contact Genesis directly- Michele Jordan
(510-590-3390) and Mahasin Abdul Salaam

Please let me know if you'll be able to make it and who you'll be bringing.
