To: Sacramento Regional Transit Board of Directors

   Because G4S, the world’s largest private security company, is complicit in and profiting from well-documented violations of human rights and other international laws, we the undersigned ask that you: 1) not extend Sacramento Regional Transit’s current contract with G4S, allowing it to expire on June 30, 2016; 2) develop criteria to be included in Request For Proposals (RFP) for the next contract to exclude companies that are involved in human rights violations; and 3) do not award G4S another contract if they are still engaged or complicit in violations of human rights and international law.

   We add our voices to the letter that you have received from local organizations and individuals and to others around the world who are calling on G4S to reform its business practices and have refused to do business with them until they do.

    Repeat and consistent violations of human rights by this corporation are well documented. Sacramento should not be party to supporting their methods and practices.

    As a Sacramento Regional Transit rider for 21 years I am appalled that G4S was ever hired to perform security duties! Why did Sac RT even hire them in the first place? Why didn’t Sac RT do a better review about their background? As a daily Sacramento Regional Transit rider I do not want to be paying $100 a month for my transit pass to wind up seeing my transit fare go to pay a crypto-fascist security corporation run by thugs, goons and gangsters!
