1
00:00:00,792 --> 00:00:03,920
-If you catch a bus after
dark, you know the wait.

2
00:00:03,920 --> 00:00:05,755
The schedule says 10 minutes.

3
00:00:05,755 --> 00:00:08,591
You stand there for 30,
and you get home an hour

4
00:00:08,591 --> 00:00:10,093
later than you planned.

5
00:00:10,093 --> 00:00:13,054
On a good route, the bus shows
up and you forget about it.

6
00:00:13,054 --> 00:00:16,558
On a thin one, you plan your
whole evening around it.

7
00:00:16,558 --> 00:00:20,145
Seattle voted in 2020 for more
bus service, and that money

8
00:00:20,145 --> 00:00:21,730
did what we said it would.

9
00:00:21,730 --> 00:00:24,899
Buses come more often on the
routes people ride most.

10
00:00:24,899 --> 00:00:28,361
And 10,000 of our neighbors
ride with a free pass.

11
00:00:28,361 --> 00:00:31,406
That funding runs out in 2027.

12
00:00:31,406 --> 00:00:34,075
If Proposition 1 fails,
the extra service we

13
00:00:34,075 --> 00:00:35,577
bought with it goes away.

14
00:00:36,745 --> 00:00:40,123
Proposition 1 renews the
funding for $29 more

15
00:00:40,123 --> 00:00:41,708
a year per household.

16
00:00:41,708 --> 00:00:44,627
With this funding, buses
will come more often, and

17
00:00:44,627 --> 00:00:47,797
they will keep running later
at night and on weekends.

18
00:00:47,797 --> 00:00:51,176
The free passes for
Seattleites who cannot cover

19
00:00:51,176 --> 00:00:54,721
the fare will double, from
10,000 people to 22,000.

20
00:00:54,721 --> 00:00:58,099
For a family, a bus you can
count on means skipping the

21
00:00:58,099 --> 00:00:59,768
cost of gas or a second car.

22
00:00:59,768 --> 00:01:02,812
For a neighbor who stopped
driving, it means getting

23
00:01:02,812 --> 00:01:05,523
to the doctor without
asking anyone for a ride.

24
00:01:05,523 --> 00:01:08,860
Each of those trips is also
one less car in traffic.

25
00:01:08,860 --> 00:01:12,030
Vote yes on Proposition 1
when your ballot comes.

26
00:01:12,030 --> 00:01:16,159
Proposition 1 is endorsed by
Mayor Katie Wilson, King County

27
00:01:16,159 --> 00:01:19,996
Executive Girmay Zahilay,
Seattle and King County

28
00:01:19,996 --> 00:01:25,001
Councilmembers, MLK Labor, ATU
587, King County Democrats,

29
00:01:25,001 --> 00:01:28,379
