Sacramento is shaping California's streets now. Join Streets For All's state policy team for a briefing on our 2026 agenda, key bills, budget battles, and what's at stake for safe streets across the state.

Listen to @michaelschneider.com speak with Congresswoman Laura Friedman yesterday on her bill to unlock federal dollars for technology to eliminate police changes.
Not only could this lead to safer streets for all, but also to the end of police helicopters in LA!

BREAKING
Second HLA Lawsuit filed asking a court to rule that:
1. Large Asphalt Repair not HLA exempt
2. Slurry Seal not HLA exempt
3. Community Plan updates don’t override HLA
LA needs to stop trying to find loopholes & implement the will of the voters!

Incredible set of bills from @streetsforall.org. I could not be more eager do my part at @marinbike.org to push this package through.

Budget Ask: A $200 million annual addition to the Active Transportation Program (ATP), which is our state's premier pot of street safety funding. Last year, ATP only funded about 30 of the 350 projects that applied.
SB 1423 by Senator Henry Stern would steer half of STIP funds toward projects that actually make streets safer for people walking, biking, and taking transit, while also making the state’s top safe streets grant program easier for cities to access.
AB 1833 by @asmtinamckinnor.bsky.social lets drivers voluntarily opt into insurance telematics with privacy protections, so safer driving can be reflected more fairly while keeping strong guardrails around consent, data use, and consumer protection.
AB 2284 by Assemblymember Diane B. Dixon would require CHP to publish a list of devices marketed as e-bikes that are not actually legal e-bikes. More transparency helps consumers, schools, cities, and law enforcement know what is and isn’t legal.
SB 1292 by Senator Laura Richardson gives cities stronger curb management tools to enforce parking violations in loading zones, bike lanes, and crosswalks. Better curb management means fewer delays, safer streets, and less chaos.
AB 1599 by Assemblymember Patrick J. Ahrens creates a California Transit Stop Registry. Better, standardized stop data means better trip planning, better coordination across agencies, and better information on the amenities riders actually have at stops.
AB 2015 by @buffywicks.bsky.social helps cities keep slow streets actually slow by stopping navigation apps from routing cut-through traffic onto neighborhood streets designed for local access, walking, and biking.
SB 1167 by Senator Catherine Blakespear cracks down on high-powered e-motos being sold as e-bikes. It tightens definitions, labeling, and disclosures so legal e-bikes stay a trusted mobility option and illegal devices stop slipping through.
AB 1976 by @buffywicks.bsky.social , the Safe Streets Streamlining Act, cuts process barriers that delay or kill good projects. It reins in bad petition rules, updates pedestrian mall law, and helps cities actually deliver safer streets.
AB 1837 by @asmmarkgonzalez.bsky.social would make transit lane and bus stop camera enforcement permanent statewide. Illegal parking slows buses and creates unsafe boarding. This bill helps keep transit moving and riders safer.
AB 1740 by @asmrickzbur.bsky.social makes it easier to build bike lanes, bus improvements, housing, and other multimodal projects in urban coastal communities, so cities can move faster on safety and climate wins while protecting coastal access.
2026 Legislative package Streets For All
We are proud to announce our 2026 bill package to make our communities more walkable, bikeable, and transit-oriented. Here’s what we’ve got going on in Sacramento this year:
The City of West Hollywood has formally said that Karen Bass' approach doesn’t work and risks delaying accelerating the entire K Line Northern Extension.
MAYOR BASS STOP PLAYING GAMES WITH THE ENTIRE REGION’S TRANSPORTATION SYSTEM TO APPEASE THE UNAPPEASABLE!
It’s working for us… what happens when you click? What browser are you using?
🚨 Mayor Bass looks to delay K Line North while claiming she isn't 🚨
Mayor Bass has drafted a motion that she claims will not delay the project, but could result in the project getting kicked back to 2041!

Here’s the full recording of our Mayoral Debate with @adammillerla.bsky.social @nithyaforthecity.bsky.social @raeforla.com, with timestamps for each topic.

We apologize for the failure of our live feed at the LA Mayor debate tonight, it was due to technical issues beyond our control.
The good news is that the recording still worked well, and we will be uploading it shortly to all of our channels!
“At the same time, a small contingent of homeowners in an historic Mid City neighborhood continue to reject Metro’s assurances, backed by years of studies and history, that the train and its construction will have minimal, if any, effect on their lives.”

New research from the Data/Dev Team! We show that LA County can use value capture to fund nearly all High Speed Rail projects inside the county to the tune of over $15-23 while remaining net positive for the County budget. https://data.streetsforall.org/blog/cahsr_eifd/
Surfer riding a bicycle with a surfboard attached to the side on a road with broken asphalt. White stripes of paint separate the ride from cars. A sign says “Bike Lane BEGIN” and another one says Speed Limit 55”.
Today’s bicycle adventure starts with infrastructure that LA city council member Traci Park thinks is good enough. She’s up for reelection.
Potholes, Large Asphalt Repair, posted speed limit of 55 mph, paint separating bikes from drag racers. @streetsforall.org @lintonjoe.bsky.social
West Valley NIMBYs killed Metro's original North San Fernando Valley Transit Corridor proposal.
Glendale, Burbank & Eagle Rock NIMBYs are stalling progress on North Hollywood-Pasadena BRT project.
Now Mid-City NIMBYs are trying to derail K Line Northern Extension.
Why can't we have nice things! 😪
🚨 THURSDAY: Show up to save the K Line Northern Extension! 🚨
Mayor Bass and her allies on the board may once again try to delay it over NON issues.
NIMBYism is putting the whole project at risk.
SHOW UP, TAKE ACTION:
