Dear John The 118th Congress has been sworn in and is already hard at work on a number of issues that could impact public transportation funding in communities nationwide. While most of these legislators are returning to Congress after being re-elected, many are newly elected and just starting off their congressional careers. Help Voices for Public Transit welcome our elected officials to the 118th Congress and urge them to support public transportation. It's important for our members of Congress to hear from their constituents about the critical role public transportation plays in connecting people to their jobs and employment opportunities, strengthening local economies, and supporting vibrant communities. With the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act still being implemented, it's critical that your members of Congress understand why it’s so important to continue ensuring the public transit funding allocated by the law makes its way to local communities to help expand, upgrade, and build new public transit infrastructure. Take two minutes to tell your elected official to support public transit in the 118th Congress—send your message today. As always, thank you for helping fight for increased public transportation investment that strengthens communities, grows economies, and benefits our entire country. Best, Voices for Public Transit |
