I'm so worried about this, you guys! A 30-50% fare increase? That's just not right 
. I get that BART needs funding, but is it really fair to burden commuters like Adonis and Erinne even more? They're already stressed enough getting to work six times a week 
.And the station closures? Castro Valley, Oakland Airport... those are my stops! What am I supposed to do if BART closes down at 9 p.m.? It's already hard to find time for myself during the day
. We need better public transportation options, not less 
.I think Alicia Trost makes a good point that investing in transit is an investment in our community, but it feels like they're just throwing us under the bus
. Can't we work together to find a solution? Maybe look into more sustainable funding methods or explore other public transportation options? The future of Bay Area transportation hangs in the balance 
. We need to take action and support Connect Bay Area 
!
... have you guys tried those amazing Korean BBQ tacos? 
Anyway, back to BART... $376 million deficit is crazy 
. I feel bad for commuters like Fabor and Johnson who rely on BART so much. But at the same time, I'm thinking about how cool it would be to live in a place where you can just take a train or bus anywhere instead of driving 
... maybe that's why they're trying to close some stations? Anyway, Connect Bay Area sounds like a pretty important name 
. By the way, have you seen those new Apple watches with built-in GPS for hiking? 
. Like, yeah, they're in a tight spot financially, but this is no reason to panic, right? It's not like they're just going to shut down all the stations and leave people high and dry 
. And, tbh, some of those low-rider stations have been empty for ages, so maybe it's time to give them the boot 
. Can't we just find some creative solution to get funding without, you know, crippling our public transportation system? 
It's like, we're already struggling with traffic and parking, now they wanna close stations?! 
63% of trains running on time is basically just a myth at this point, #NotImpressed
How are people supposed to afford this? The Bay Area's already expensive enough without having to shell out even more for BART. It's time for some serious investment, #InvestInTransit
#ConnectBayArea
. It's just not right, you know? I feel like we gotta invest in our public transportation system instead of just throwin' money at it whenever we need it 
. And what's with the 9 p.m. closure time? That's gonna be a real bummer for people who work late shifts
