Grassroots group to advocate for the expansion of passenger rail in Queens, especially of the proposed Triboro and QNS lines. Our borough deserves better!
@LIUNA VP & New England Regional Manager Donato A. Bianco, Jr. says it LOUD & PROUD! 💪
Empire Wind 1 hitting completion next year? That’s NY dodging a huge energy crisis, smashing climate goals, & sparking THOUSANDS of high-demand union jobs! ⚡️
Friends of the QNS supports @MTA Central Business District Tolling ("congestion pricing"). We look forward to enjoying the transit improvements it enables. The MTA must use the funds raised to eliminate transit deserts and provide all NYC residents with the transit they deserve.
We're hosting a Holiday Happy Hour event tomorrow night at @finbackbrewery in Glendale! Hope to see you there. Please register in advance:

“By providing more frequent and accessible transit, we can offer freedom to New Yorkers to leave their cars behind and choose a more sustainable and efficient way to travel.” https://t.co/wZ9eZW9Nwb
PCAC Executive Director Lisa Daglian testified to the @MTA Board today to say that riders need funding for transit today, tomorrow, and into the future! No one-shots, no long shots, only sure things: direct, recurring revenue for transit and its riders⬇️

We're watching closely this week as we race towards the fiscal year-end, and next year's budget is finalized.
New Yorkers need the MTA to receive stable and repeating revenues. This city and region runs on transit, and we need to not only maintain, but increase service!
Andy Byford, the former New York City subway chief who earned praise from riders as well as the nickname “Train Daddy” for improving an antiquated system, will run Amtrak’s new high-speed rail development program, the train service said Thursday. https://t.co/XA4HqkIC7H
@RidersAlliance@GovKathyHochul@jaqicohen@Tri_State@MTA We need to reactivate the Lower Montauk Branch of the LIRR providing local transit stops in a transit desert from Jamaica to Long Island City & connect to the Interboro Express as well and incorporating a cycling greenway running safely along the tracks. #buildTheQNS@QNSFriends
We're excited to see another transformational rail project make progress this month.
When we can easily travel between LA and Las Vegas by rail, we'll all wonder why we did it any other way. Hats off to @BrightlineWest for leading this effort!

Thank you @QueensCB2 for submitting this request to @CMJulieWon. We cannot have transit equity where transit deserts exist. The QNS will rectify this inequity & deliver better transit for the residents in our district who need it most.
@travis_robert We're working on it. Sign our petition at the link below to show your support, and email us at [email protected] if you want to get involved.

Between the Joint Legislative Hearing on Transportation in NYS, and last night's #SOTU, this week has been loaded with exciting discussion around infrastructure and it's importance. It reminds us that NOW is the time to invest in our future and #BuildTheQNS!
Congratulations to the MTA! This is an historic day for NY public transit, and it is only just the beginning.
Check the box on Manhattan ✅ Now let's also make it easy for people to move around and within Queens. Let's #BuildTheQNS!
