Dear John,

We all know that the NYC subway is essential -- for frontline workers, for vaccine distribution, for people seeking emergency shelter, and for our city’s economic recovery.

But for the last 10 months, it’s been closed every night.

I’ve called on Governor Cuomo and the MTA to bring back 24/7 subway operation to serve the 24/7 vaccination effort -- but it's clear we have to get louder.

Tomorrow morning, the City Council is holding an oversight hearing and I’ll be asking the MTA directly about bringing back 24/7 subway service. Join the campaign to bring back 24/7 subway service for NYC. [[link removed]]

The overnight closure of the subway has cost the already strapped MTA millions. The trains aren’t actually running any less often -- they're just only open for transit staff, cleaning, and police.

Essential workers going home from late night hospital shifts or to early morning grocery shifts can't use the late night trains. And people seeking emergency shelter have been kicked out into the bitter cold or routed into congregate shelters that aren’t always safe in normal times, even without a contagious pandemic.

Now, as the city works to scale up 24/7 vaccination sites, we need our public transit system to be operating 24/7 too for New Yorkers who rely on it. New York City is in a race for its life -- join the campaign to bring back 24/7 subway service to combat the swift spread of the virus. [[link removed]]
