Happy 150th birthday to San Francisco’s cable cars! 🎉

BIG TRANSIT FUNDING UPDATE
Last night, the Senate & Assembly released our budget, including most of the agreement on transit. We vote on Thursday.

We're so grateful for the awesome operators running @SFBART, @rideact, @SolTransRide and @SFMTA_Muni for helping get people where they needed to go while the Bay and the Bridge were having tantrums.
Transit is essential. Pass it on.
