MBTA riders and workers applaud Governor Healey’s call for permanent funding for a low-income fare
Reduced T costs will bring affordability and equity to thousands of Massachusetts residents
BOSTON – The Public Transit Public Good coalition issued the following statement in support of Governor Maura Healey’s commitment to funding a low-income MBTA fare in the FY25 budget:
“Governor Healey’s bold commitment to funding a low-income fare program will transform the lives of tens of thousands of people who count on the MBTA to live their lives with freedom and ease – to get to work, to medical appointments, and to take their children to school. No one should have to sacrifice food or medications to afford MBTA fares, and the Governor’s vision will bring real financial relief to more than 60,000 citizens across our state.
