The largest bus-only transit agency in the United States will appoint a member to replace Oakland City Councilmember Rebecca Kaplan, and transit activists as well as other concerned leaders are weighing in.

I didn&#8217;t vote for her in 2000. I endorsed Clinton Killian in June, because of his experience as [...]]]></description>
