Why does the @MTA have speakers on the platoform if it only uses it to tell passengers the train is coming with a recorded message? Why can’t they tell people the train arriving is skipping stops before it arrives? #fixthemta
At -15°F real feel in an above-ground station, not running 6-minute service is cruel and sadistic. Albany’s straight contempt for city commuters showing through @MTA #FixTheMTA
Good example of how in the NY Assembly, @ZohranKMamdani used his now-famous mix of clear, simple policy descriptions & engaging vids to mobilize the public - in this case to support not a candidate, but legislation - a package of 8 bills to #FixTheMTA in 2022.
Freeze the fare at $2.75.
6 minute train service.
20% more bus service.
Free buses over the next 4 years.
Without you, these are just demands.
With you, this is our future.

2/ But transit is vital — especially for a more affordable, livable NYC.
When Zohran launched #FixtheMTA, he put riders first.
He took the work seriously, listened when we said free buses must be fast buses, built coalitions, and broke through in a brutally tough budget year.
@MTA it took *SIX* L trains to come, in order for most of my platform (Lorimer, Manhattan bound) to fit onto one.
1) upgrade train signaling and 2) increase the number of L trains during rush hour PLEASE. This is ridiculous.

Meet Ruby, a teacher from the Bronx. She told us her daily MTA experience “sucks.” She is voting for @ZohranKMamdani b/c he has a strong plan to #FixTheMTA. “I encourage my students to be innovative and expect my next mayor to be so as well. The same old will not work for us.”
Thanks to @NYCmayor, NYC runs some of the slowest buses across the country. ACE --- which issues tickets by camera to drivers who violate bus lane & double parking rules --- helps change that.
We won ACE in the 2023 budget as part of our campaign to #FixTheMTA.
Congestion pricing drives NYers to unclean, unsafe subways while @MTA turns blind eye. Riders crammed in dirty cars as someone casually lights a cigarette. Pleas for help unanswered. Forcing folks into these conditions is no solution! @NYCTSubway #CongestionPricing #FixTheMTA
Last year the #FixTheMTA campaign secured record funding for our subways & a free bus pilot program. This year, @ZohranKMamdani & I led a budget request for $90M to increase bus frequency & expand the bus pilot. Tell Gov Hochul to fund transit!
Act now: https://t.co/THVRkc4Cf8
Riders are reaping the benefits of Albany's historic investment in the @MTA last session.
By investing $45 million in increased @NYCTBus frequency and reliability in this year's budget, we can #GetCongestionPricingRight, continue to build off this success, and #FixTheMTA.
Investing in public transportation isn’t just an investment in infrastructure; it's an investment in the very heart and soul of New York. Let’s bring free bus service to District 57! 🚍#fixtheMTA
At today’s #FixtheMTA rally I called for the expansion of the free bus pilot program. Buses are a vital source of transit, specifically for marginalized populations. I also support investments in bus frequency. Everyone benefits from equitable, safe, & efficient public transit.
@TransAlt Lot more reasons than that to abandon this horrible and harmful scheme - no CP for NYC! #NoCongestionPricing #FixTheMTA for real
Spreading the good word of the free bus 🚎
Everyone we talked to was excited to hear: the M116 bus is now fare-free!

Loving the Queens representation amongst the honorees at tonight’s @RidersAlliance gala!!!!#6minuteservice #frequency #fixthemta #fairfares #transitequity
Q is for the Queue,
to get on a crowded train,
waiting for the subway
can be a massive pain
(#FixTheMTA)
Hey this is cool you showed up for this @clydevanel but as my Assemblymember do you know what would be EVEN COOLER? If you actually co-sponsored any of the bills that are part of the #FixTheMTA package because right now you are on zero. Thanks in advance!
@SenGianaris @EddieGibbsNY @AlexBores @YudelkaTapia In Queens, I met up with @clydevanel and @KhaleelAnderson to talk to riders on the Q4!
FREE BUS FARE FOR THE NEXT 6 MONTHS ON THE Q4!
#fixthemta
There will be no transfers to other bus lines or to the subway during this period.
A special shout out goes to @ZohranKMamdani for leading the fight for The Pilot program.
