April PAC Meeting: Getting on Track with Transit
Join the Political Action Committee (PAC) of the Harvey Milk LGBTQ Democratic Club for our monthly PAC Meeting. This will be a hybrid meeting, at Milk-SF Cafe (302 Valencia) and bit.ly/milkpac.
At this meeting, the PAC will discuss transit justice. We will be joined by BART Board President Janice Li, Chinese for Affirmative Action / Stop AAPI Hate Director of Advocacy Andy Wong, and San Francisco Transit Riders (SFTR). We will focus on all aspects of transit justice, including affordability, accessibility, safety, and dependability. We will use the discussion to inform a Transit Justice platform plank brainstorming discussion. If you have ideas for the plank you would like to share beforehand, you are invited to do so on this document: tinyurl.com/milktransit. Please note that changes to this document are tracked and monitored.
After our transit justice conversation, District 8 Supervisor Rafael Mandelman will speak with the PAC per PAC's request.
