Greenzine: July 4 voter outreach, and early Green endorsements

July 2 GREENZINE SF Green Party Weekly News and Events www.sfgreenparty.org twitter.com/sfgreenparty www.facebook.com/groups/SFGreenParty/ Dear Greens, This November's ballot is looking EXTREMELY crowded, so we've already started making endorsements. They're posted on our website: http://sfgreenparty.org/endorsements/75-november-2016-endorsements Francisco Herrera, our candidate for District 11 Supervisor, needs your help! We are looking for a web designer who can volunteer to help him build a new website. Please contact us at cc(a)sfgreens.org and we'll get you in touch with him. Until the new website is in place, you can find out more about Francisco, and send donations to help his campaign, from his Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/Francisco-Herrera-for-District-11-Supervisor-17152… *===========================* What: Voter Outreach at the SF Mime Troupe show Where: Dolores Park, SF When: Monday, July 4, 1:30-4 pm The SF Mime Troupe (sfmt.org) is opening this year in Berkeley, but will still be doing their traditional July 4 show at Dolores Park. Greens will talk to voters about our Fall campaigns, and ask people to sign postcards in favor of Single Payer Health Care. We can't bring our large Green Party banner this year because of threats from Mayor Ed Lee's park rangers, but we will be there with smaller signs we can carry. If you can volunteer, please look for us there, or email cc(a)sfgreens.org if you can help! *===========================* What: Sign petition to create Commuter Shuttle Bus Hubs When: Now through Monday, July 4 As part of a negotiated settlement between the SFMTA and appellants of the "permanent" Commuter Shuttle Program (it is only one year long), the SFMTA agreed to explore hub alternatives to the current program in which the SFMTA is not enforcing the California Vehicle Code 22500 [2], which prohibits private carriers from operating in public bus stops. As such, the SFMTA is now soliciting suggestions for hubs through this url: http://www.surveygizmo.com/s3/2840037/0ad1e266a120 As long as the tech shuttles are available, incentives will exist for property owners to evict low- to moderate-income tenants, and low- to moderate-income suburban sprawl will continue to be exacerbated. We also need to preserve our public bus stop curb space for the expansion of our own system -- as a means to fight climate change and income inequality. *===========================* Paid contractor wanted: SF Green Party Fundraiser/Volunteer Coordinator (a part time independent contractor (1099) position): http://sfgreenparty.org/help-wanted *===========================* To submit events for our newsletter, please email a short blurb to news(a)sfgreens.org.
