CCEJ ANNOUNCEMENT!! ACCESS THREATENED!

BRING A PLAN! BRING YOUR VOICE!

Please consider attending King County's Public Transit Forum next Wednesday
evening at the Rainier Vista Boys and Girls Club, 4520 Martin Luther King Jr
Way S, reception at 6 pm, program at 6:30. This video is the County's official
public invitation, with a fairly objective presentation of what they intend to
say. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uuYavsoq90A

Environmental Justice organizations elsewhere, especially in Los Angeles and
Atlanta, have identified access to public transit as an issue of Environmental
Justice.

While CCEJ has focused on other issues here, the same questions arise
in this case:

• How fairly will the cuts be distributed?
• Will Metro try harder to retain the rich suburban riders from Redmond than they do the poor urban and suburban people from Seattle and South King County?
• Will their slick new Light Rail train displace the neighborhood service that poor people need to get around?

Please attend this forum and voice your own questions and concerns.

Thanks!
Jonathan Betz-Zall, CCEJ Board Member
