Last year, the legislature increased taxes and fees on gasoline and certain vehicles to help maintain our crumbling roads, bridges, and highways. They were smart about it, emphasizing maintaining what we have, and including biking and walking infrastructure to the tune of $100 million per year.
But now that funding is under attack. And we need your help to defend it.
Anti-tax activists have gotten Proposition 6 placed on the November ballot. Prop 6 will eliminate this critical funding and the transportation projects it supports, making it much harder to make our streets safe for biking and walking.
We need your help to fight the repeal. And for the month of August, your donation will be doubled. Our friends at Cohen Law Partners have pledged a $10,000 match for safer streets.
Chip in today to defend the gas tax and make our streets safer.
Thanks,
Dave Snyder, Executive Director
Cynthia Rose, Vice President, Board of Directors
California Bicycle Coalition
P.S. With your help, we can beat back the repeal effort and make our streets safer for all road users. Chip in now to make the most of this match.
Thanks to our friends at Cohen Law Partners for this generous match.
