Helped Pass Proposition 50
Pushed for Better Transportation
We rallied, gave public comment, and met with SANDAG Board Members to advocate for a 2025 Regional Transportation Plan that prioritizes transit, biking and emission cuts. An early win: getting over half of planned highway expansions canceled.
