Today is the 34th anniversary of the ADA, which protects the rights of those with disabilities. More than 7% of BART riders have a disability, including Steven Howell and Vanessa Castro. Says Steven: "[BART] showed me there is life out there." #ADA34 @adanational

The fed transit program is 60 years old today! Managed first by UMTA, then FTA, federal support has reshaped U.S. transit. We started by helping a few bus lines & big-city subways. Today we support >3K transit agencies providing rail, bus & ferry service. https://t.co/MvwEUUgep5

While Philly sleeps, SEPTA’s overnight wash-down crews blast trash, human waste, and dirt from transit stations. Then, they do it all over again, with the goal of deep cleaning each station twice a month. 🔗 https://t.co/ujaUAfrszW

#CongestionPricing isn't just good transit policy — it's good climate policy. The plan would take thousands of cars off the road and put $ toward improving public transit and electrifying bus fleets. It's common sense policy! https://t.co/kBxx6r9ebL

The state’s Democratic governor is sacrificing a landmark climate policy to score political points.

Yesterday, @GovKathyHochul chose the status quo, leaving @MTA with a $15 billion funding gap and NYC streets looking like this. It’s a situation in which nobody wins. New Yorkers want accessible stations, fast and frequent buses and cleaner air- not delays!
