April 27, 2024 GREENZINE SF Green Party Weekly News and Events www.sfgreenparty.org twitter.com/sfgreenparty instagram.com/sfgreenparty mastodon.sfgreens.org/@sfgreenparty www.facebook.com/groups/SFGreenParty/ Dear Greens, At our meeting last Wednesday, we had a great discussion with our likely Presidential nominee Dr. Jill Stein about how Greens can leverage her campaign to build local parties such as ours. Dr. Stein won the endorsement of the CA Green Party, so we encourage people to help her campaign as well as getting active in your local Green Party group. We also endorsed the ComMUNIty Transit Act, a community-led ballot initiative to tax Uber and Lyft to fund Muni. You can find out more about this initiative at https://www.sftransitact.com/ Greens are helping gather signatures to put this on the November ballot, so it will need only 50% support to pass.
