Joint Statement: Betsy Plum of Riders Alliance and David R. Jones of CSS Applaud New York City FY24 Budget for Expanding Funding for Fair Fares
“With so many New Yorkers struggling during such a challenging budget year, we commend Mayor Adams, Speaker Adams and the City Council for negotiating a $20 million expansion of Fair Fares. Expanding the nation's largest low-income transit discount program will help it achieve its full potential to combat poverty and promote economic security. We look forward to working with City Hall to make the expansion as impactful for as many people as possible.”
