“#TransitIsEssential because without it I can’t get to work, to the
grocery store or places I have to go to or need to be.” -Nehemiah, former
Green for All Youth Ambassador

John,

We all have a story to tell. Across cultures and time, we have told
stories to inspire, drive action, and uplift the voices of those on the
margins. [ [link removed] ]Now, we’re calling on you to share yours. 

Since Coronavirus hit the U.S., more than 160 transit workers have died.
Ridership has plummeted along with transit agency funding. Communities of
color are disproportionately impacted by drastic service cuts and a severe
lack of health and safety protections.

Now, transit agencies and lawmakers are forced to make decisions about the
future of our transit system that could ultimately hurt the millions of
people who rely on public transit. That’s why we’re asking you to join
transit workers, riders, and supporters across the country to grow a
national conversation about the importance of public transit. [ [link removed] ]Your
#TransitIsEssential story is critical to shaping these decisions and
ensuring we create a system better than before.

If you’re in need of inspiration and ideas, [ [link removed] ]listen to stories from
directly impacted transit riders and workers here.

Through our collective stories, we’ll build momentum to generate
much-needed policy change. We’ll fight to increase funding to protect
transit riders and workers  from COVID-19. And we’ll address the historic
and systemic racial and economic inequities in our public transit system
to build a better, cleaner transportation future for all.

We can’t wait to see what you share!
