Public transit systems need an immediate infusion of additional relief funding to continue safe operations and provide an essential service in our nation’s ongoing response to the COVID-19 pandemic. Without new emergency funding, a majority of public transit systems will have to cut service or furlough employees.
Please take just a few minutes today to make sure your members of Congress know public transit is:
- Playing an essential role in helping our nation fight COVID-19
- Enabling healthcare workers and other essential workers to reach the frontlines of the battle to help our communities
- Supporting local businesses and workers to help bring our struggling economy back
Please email your lawmakers now to urge them to make public transportation a priority in emergency response legislation. Now is the time to make our voices heard! Sincerely,
Chad Chitwood
