We are lending our support to Voices for Public Transit to help build momentum around policies and regulations that will drive investment in America’s public transit infrastructure, which is not only good for our business but also for our communities.
Voices for Public Transit is a grassroots movement, with more than 200,000 individuals who have joined together to show support for public transit. Participating is easy and costs nothing except a little bit of your time.
One of the important things Voices for Public Transit is doing is helping elected officials and other decision-makers understand the value of public transit beyond getting people from point A to point B. Voices for Public Transit members share a diverse array of stories that showcase how public transportation makes their communities stronger, their quality of life better, and their economies more robust.
As a member of our industry, your story can showcase how public transportation enables us to:
- Create jobs and strengthen local economies in the communities where we live and work
- Reduce pollution and roadway congestion, and connect more people to jobs, opportunities, and services
- Build more livable, sustainable communities for everyone, even if they don’t ride public transit personally
