This fare hike is a direct result of the state's failure to properly fund transit, and our communities are paying the price. When we return to Harrisburg later this month, securing transit funding will be a top priority. We can’t afford to wait any longer

Welcome to the club. First and kickass!
Didn’t have “Receiving a Best of Philly Award alongside The Chicken Man and the PPA” on my bingo card. In all seriousness, it is an honor to be recognized with my fellow “Council First” recipient, @NinaAhmadPHL.
