Fair Share for the MBTA
It’s no secret that the MBTA is in crisis. Frightening safety problems. Unaffordable fares. Service cuts. The problems at the MBTA are all too familiar from recent headlines, rallies, and a month of shutdowns on the Orange and Green Lines. Riders, workers, transit advocates, and business groups agree that the MBTA must be made safer and more equitable to truly serve the public good.
But what many Bay Staters don’t realize is that their vote on the ballot in November could help secure the future of the MBTA. Question 1 on the ballot, the Fair Share Amendment, could go a long way toward making the MBTA safer and fairer.
