[nfbwatlk] Fw: Take Action To Save Metro!

[Jacob Struiksma]

Did you know state politicians are threatening your bus service, as you 
know it?

Politicians are jeopardizing the service, safety, and affordability of 
King County's bus service. Without new funding options, King County Metro 
will eliminate 65 bus routes and reduce service on 86 more in 2014. These 
changes are estimated to impact 70% of bus riders in King County.

Keep your bus on the street. Take Action Now.

Sign a petition to support saving King County Metro.
Contact your legislator and tell them you support local funding options 
for transit and safe streets.
Attend a special meeting of the Metropolitan King County Council's 
Transportation, Economy and Environment Committee, and tell your leaders 
how transit service cuts will affect you.
Tuesday, May 14

3:30 p.m. open house

4:00 p.m. public testimony

Union Station

401 South Jackson Street, Seattle

Tell your Friends. Ask your friends to sign the petition and contact their 
legislators.
Sign up to volunteer to spread the word about Saving Metro.
Share on Facebook and Twitter. Spread the word, we need to pack the 
hearing room to show that King County bus riders depend on sustainable 
revenue to fund transit. #SaveMetro
Join the fight to Save Metro. In King County, we all depend on Metro buses 
to relieve congestion and get us to where we need to go.

But unless the state legislature gives King County a permanent funding 
solution this year to replace its current temporary stop-gap funding, 
Metro will be forced to cut 17% of its bus service. The loss of bus 
service would be devastating to hundreds of thousands of commuters and 
leave students and seniors stranded.

Take Action Now >>>>

Thank you for everything that you do and have done,

Sincerely,
