Regional Transit Measure: God yes
Vote no if you’re an asshole.
Oakland Review of Books

Drawing of BART train 

OCT 14, 2026 • VOTING GUIDE 2026
Public Transit Revenue Measure District, California, Proposition RTM, Create Sales Tax to Fund Regional Transportation Systems Initiative

If you vote “no” on this one, you’re probably deeply misinformed or an asshole. If you vote “no” on this, you are probably telling yourself ideologically congenial lies, rather than living in reality. And if you Work From Home (or even part-time WFH), and you vote no on this measure, you are engaged in an intra-class war against the workers who make your life comfortable.
