On September 13th, House Republicans voted to pass a budget which approved cuts of $11.3 million to transit in Allegheny County. The budget then moved to a vote in the Senate, and PPT, along with the Amalgamated Transit Union (ATU) headed to Harrisburg to say “NO” to more cuts to transit!
Transit lines are life lines, and thousands of residents rely on public transit every day to get to doctor’s appointments, work, school and many other daily necessities.Transit is not a luxury or a privilege. It’s an absolute necessity!
