Worried about free clipper and public charge. Caregivers keep little ones home because they have no bus fare for school. If you dont have bus fare you can get a ticketed. Undocumented families are afraid they are on a list when they hand over their passports to sfmta. I have heard about sfmta officials. While i am sure it is rare but it happened. Asking for immigration paperwork and searching back pats. Some encourage people to carry red cards to school to give it to officials. It is traditionally for ice agents. I have suggestions.

The other thing is the paratransit card that you get where you pay 18 for taxi vampers. Paratransit will match it so you have 90.

I think the paratransit card should be able to load it online versus going to an office somewhere. You are saying and it struck me and tell me if this is wrong. The cash fare is 3 with the clipper card it is 2. 50, is that right . So i wil
