AC Transit is rolling out a free and reduced-fare transit pass pilot at 11 middle- and high-schools in Alameda County this fall, funded by the Measure BB sales tax passed in 2014. (NOTE: AB 2222, a bill that Move LA is co-sponsoring, would provide funding for a statewide program if it wins the support of CA Senate leadership next month!) AC Transit's program for kids is similar to the program Metro will roll out for college and university students—both will negotiate different agreements with each schools. AC Transit Board President Christian Peeples said that anything that grows a new generation of public transit riders is probably a boon for the agency. Move LA agrees! http://www.eastbaytimes.com/…/free-and-reduced-fare-transit…
