The group "Faith Action for Community Equity" wants the city to reconsider its recent hike in bus fares.
On Tuesday, the group launched a petition drive at this bus stop on Kona Street.
The bus fare increase went into effect on july first, raising one-way adult fares by 25 cents and the monthly bus pass by ten dollars.
"With the petitions, we hope just to get a bunch of people to understand that these things are not out of their control, that we do live in a system of government where people have a say over what happens in their cities and communities," says Zacahry Fraser with FACE.
The group says the fare increase was needed because the city is diverting money from the bus to the rail project.
