We must act now! As Voices for Public Transit, we can complement the efforts of APTA members and amplify their message about the significance of strong transportation systems anchored in public transit for our communities.
John,
This week, association members from the American Public Transportation Association (APTA) will meet with members of Congress to emphasize the importance of robust public transportation networks and the nation’s urgent need to fund critical upgrade and expansion projects.
Now is the time to make our voices heard by Congress as they work on Fiscal Year (FY) 2025 appropriations. As Voices for Public Transit, we can complement the efforts of APTA members and amplify their message about the significance of strong transportation systems anchored in public transit for our communities. We must act now!
Public transportation plays a critical role in connecting people to their jobs and career opportunities, strengthening local economies, and supporting vibrant communities. With the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA) still being implemented, we must maintain a steady drumbeat of support and champion initiatives that allow for the maximum amount of funding allocated by the law.
