Congrats to @RidersAlliance, @CSSNYorg, and especially my former colleagues at @PCACriders on making this relief a reality for the working riders who power transit.
For the first time ever, the @MTA will offer half-price subway/bus fares to New Yorkers earning minimum wage. 🎉
NEW: City Council is expanding transit discounts to 340,000 more New Yorkers, as part of the budget agreement. The program, Fair Fares, will now be available to 1.3 million bus, subway and paratransit riders

More open spaces. More parks. Everywhere. More efficient public transportation everywhere. More housing for everyone. Supportive & middle class work force hsg, It’s time to create a city for everyone.
The Hudson Valley is facing the same housing challenges as the rest of New York: rising costs, not enough homes, and too many people being priced out of the communities they love.
That's why we're excited to endorse @EvanMenist for State Senate in District 39!
“Monitor Point will deliver approximately 1,150 homes, with 40 percent permanently affordable. The majority of those affordable homes will be at income levels between 40 and 60 percent of the area median income.”
The Rochester, NY highway removal was able to reclaim 6.5 acres of land, leading to $229 million in development and millions in new tax revenue for the city.
We need more urban highway removals.
Last year intra-city ridership topped 25% of all LIRR travel for the first time. We should stop talking like LIRR is only for wealthy Long Islanders.
Need to cut down on costs so we can continue to drive fares lower for everyone and further grow ridership both in NY and on LI.
The JFK AirTrain is, unfortunately, the perfect way to greet newcomers to our city. First thing upon setting foot here, you’re shaken down for nine bucks just to leave the airport, then dropped off in the middle of nowhere. Welcome to New York!
In Brooklyn, they actually force you at gunpoint to run a half marathon in the spring.
Good news is there’s one every weekend.
Bad news is you have to run one. It’s the law.
We’re proud to endorse @EliNorthrup for Assembly District 69! 🌇
Eli understands that New York’s housing shortage is driving up costs and making it harder for people to stay in the communities they love.
As a public defender, Eli has spent his career fighting for fairness in our communities. Now, he’s running to bring that fight for more homes and lower costs to Albany.
Here's why we’re excited to support his campaign ➡️
