Save Our System

The Save Our System Coalition is powered by riders, community leaders & orgs, volunteers & others who've had enough w/ WMATA's neglect for their riding public.

An officer pinned a woman down, exposing her breasts to a gathered crowd in an arrest that began over alleged Metro fare evasion. https://t.co/CdC9PHY75d #wmata

BREAK: Metro inks a deal with Xfinity for late night service for Capitals Game 4. (Xfinity is a brand of Comcast, NBC’s parent company). No late night service is needed for game 3 b/c it happens on Saturday night. Metro already runs till 1am Saturdays #wmata @nbcwashington

We are here with @HIPSDC @DMVBlackLives @StopCopTerrorDC for the #ReformDCJustice Candidate forum to discuss fare evasion , police violence, criminalization of poverty, sex work decriminalization and more

[Black Lives Matter DC @DMVBlackLives]

@wmata out here causing further oppression. So a person who only have cash,borrow or ask for assistance for bus fare will need a SmartTrip to broad and ride the bus? @Save_metro @BYP_100 @SURJ_DC @StopCopTerrorDC #SwipesOnUs #WmataDoBetter we see you 👀 https://t.co/YYQ9XA48Yw

.@MetroTransitPD Held down Black woman, arrested her. She is now in the hospital. WAKE UP! @StopCopTerrorDC @ACLU_DC @BYP_100 @PACAdmv https://t.co/cBH5wU1Wbz

@Jenny1964Rhule @DMVBlackLives @wmata @SURJ_DC @BYP_100 @PACAdmv @NJNP_DC Not paying a $2 fare shouldn’t result in physical assault. We should be asking why someone can’t pay for metro and why #wmata is so expensive compared to peer agencies

[Save Our System @Save_metro]

#wmata @wmata what if instead of violently attacking riders you make the system more affordable? No one should go to the hospital for a $2 fare https://t.co/ZfWo2yrZAD

[Black Lives Matter DC @DMVBlackLives]

I’m so angry right now. @wmata need to be paid a visit. Fare Evasion should not cause someone to be in the hospital and brutalize @SURJ_DC @Save_metro @BYP_100 @PACAdmv @NJNP_DC

[Save Our System @Save_metro]

Expanding public transit is critical for reducing planet-destroying greenhouse gas emissions. That's why a coalition of labor, community, and environmental groups have called for a #TransitEarthDay week of action next week.

[Basav Sen @basavsen.bsky.social @BasavIPS]

Labor, community, and environmental orgs nationwide doing #TransitEarthDay actions to demand affordable, accessible public transit for all powered by clean energy. Watch video of action in February, and join actions this week!

@unsuckdcmetro @MTA @MBTA @cta Lol. As a former daily redline rider, now metrobus rider I hear where you’re coming from. #wmata needs to be held accountable to the riding public, all riders should be able to afford a ride to work or school
