Dear members and allies,
The MBTA’s board of directors has an important vote on June 7 that could help make the T more affordable. Now is the time for us to raise our voices together to call for public transit that is affordable, equitable, and accessible. That begins with implementing a reduced-fare system for low-income riders, so they can use the public transit system without worrying about the cost.
Sign this petition ([link removed]) and join the Public Transit Public Good Coalition in calling for:
1. One environmental justice rider seat and one worker seat on the new MBTA Board, chosen from nominations made by labor and community organizations.
2. Reduced fare programs for low-income riders on all modes on the MBTA, and a path to means-tested or free fares on Massachusetts’ 15 Regional Transit Authorities.
3. New progressive revenue measures to ensure public goods like transit are paid for by those who have plenty, not by those who are struggling to get by.

In Solidarity,
Public Transit Public Good Coalition
