2021 could be a pivotal year for public transportation.
President-elect Biden and Congress could find common ground to pass a major infrastructure bill and new long-term transportation legislation next year. First, lawmakers need to take urgent action to provide at least $32 billion in emergency funding to help keep public transportation safely operational through the remainder of the pandemic. We take a look at what the future might hold in our latest blog.
To make 2021 a successful year for public transportation, we must continue to raise our voices. I hope you will continue to be part of our journey as we push hard for needed investments in public transportation.
Have a safe and happy New Year. We’ll be in touch again soon.
Thank you,
