MTA officials are warning that 24-hour transit service will soon end if Albany fails to find a way to fund our mass transit system.The State Senate is scheduled to vote on an MTA funding plan this week that would claw back doomsday fares and scheduling. This vote may be our last chance to stop the fare hike and save 24-hour service.
The Working Families Party, which has sent nearly 22,000 messages to Albany, is trying to generate another 3,000 messages in the next 24 hours.
Of the 32 Democrats and 30 Republicans in the State Senate, all of the Republicans and at least two Democrats are still threatening to vote against the "doomsday alternative" funding plan.
Yes, Martin Golden may vote in favor of raising your subway, bus and commuter rail fares by 25 - 70%.
Late-night service isn't just a convenience: it's a necessity for a lot of hard-working New Yorkers.
