SF MTA Service Critical Meeting: We’ve Reached a Tentative Agreement!

Article

Your SFMTA Service Critical Bargaining Team recommends a YES VOTE!

The City is facing drastic cuts annually due to H.R. 1 (the Trump Administration’s “Big Bad Bill”). Because of federal budget cuts, the SF MTA faces financial uncertainty. Specifically, the SF MTA faces a $344 million dollar budget deficit come July 1, 2027. To close the budget deficit, the SFMTA is relying on two revenue measures on the November 3 ballot that will raise about $160 million each that will help prevent catastrophic cuts to Muni and Regional Transit. This tentative agreement protects us in the additional following ways.

  1. Base wage increases of 12% over 4 years.
  2. No Permanent Civil Service employees will be laid off beginning after ratification to June 30, 2029.
  3. Strengthened Labor Management Committee. We shall meet monthly and can bring issues including compensation to the table.
  4. Existing contract provisions shall extend through June 30, 2031.

Join us for our Chapter Meeting at the SF Union Hall (or on Zoom) on 10/6 from 12:00PM-1:30PM to discuss the tentative agreement.

Afterwards, voting will open at 8AM on 10/7, then close at 5PM on 10/9.
