We have swapped our larger ferries into service where possible. Take the ferry from Vallejo, Oakland, Richmond or Alameda or take @rideact.bsky.social transbay buses.

Our schedules are here: sanfranciscobayferry.com/routes-sched.... You can use Clipper, the SF Bay Ferry app or pay on the boat.

BART is down systemwide. While it is, here’s a tool for finding alternative options for your trip.

And there is no real alternative to the role BART plays in our region. You should always be able to count on BART, and I’m sorry that today you can’t.

I’ll share more information when I have it.

The fight going on in the Democratic Party right now is not between hard left, left and moderate. It’s between those who want to fight and those who want to cave. And Team Fight stretches across all ideological aspects of the Party. Misread this at your own peril.

For those supporting this obscene violation of due process and expansion of governmental overreach to detain and deport legal residents without due process, please research authoritarian regimes.

Today they'll use it against a group you don't like, but it will be turned on you tomorrow.

They used ā€œfree speechā€ to hide their intentions to destroy speech.

They used ā€œDEIā€ to claim they were being discriminated against in order to discriminate against Black people.

They used ā€œgroomersā€ to claim trans people were targeting children so they could target trans people *and* children.

ā€˜Stop these crazy bills’: Republicans join Democrats to defeat anti-trans legislation in Montana One bill would remove trans children from their parents, and the other would ban drag shows and Pride marches

Last year, Republicans silenced her.

This year, many stood beside her and defeated four anti-trans bills.

This is the power of standing up for your beliefs and for what's right, and good trouble.

National Democrats, take notice.

What’s ā€œdeeply unfairā€ is the shameless backpedaling on trans rights and the villainizing and scapegoating of a community that simply wants to exist.

Trans rights now, trans rights forever, fuck that noise.

There is a station closure at Civic Center due to a major medical emergency. MUNI is offering train service in downtown San Francisco between Embarcadero and Civic Center.

There is a major delay from downtown San Francisco toward all destinations.

I wish more people knew about the 1920s Klan because they—perhaps more than European fascists—are the model for Trumpism.

This is a good summary and a nice reminder that they do a lot of damage, but in the end, fascists always lose.

S.F. is cracking down on chaotic streets. But are the problems getting pushed into one neighborhood? San Francisco's Mission District has seen illegal vending, homelessness and illicit drug markets for a long time. Can new leadership turn the situation around?

We’ve got a new Mayor, Supervisor, and BART Director (šŸ‘‹) for the Mission.

And we need a new plan to make sure our Mission plazas are vibrant, welcoming, clean, and safe.

Major news! A court in Montana has just declared SB458, a bill that "defines sex" in a way that ends the legal recognition of transgender people in Montana, as facially unconstitutional.

This is the first time a bill defining sex has been ruled on!

Huge win for trans people in MT!

The SFMTA is a huge, complex agency facing serious crises.

Leading it is an impossible job no one is more prepared to do than Julie Kirschbaum.

Muni is faster and more reliable than it’s been in decades, with the highest rider approval ever recorded.

It wouldn’t be without Julie.
