This November, Seattle voters will decide whether Proposition 1 should renew and double the sales-tax rate funding transit. Transit union leader Greg Woodfill says more frequent buses are vital for workers and other riders. Charles Prestrud, a voice of concern from the Washington Policy Center, raises questions about affordability, Metro’s rising costs, and whether more service will attract riders. Host Brian Callanan breaks down the story behind the citywide tax measure this week on City Inside/Out.
