It was a hot one, but the fight to expand Fair Fares is still going strong! Thank you to the riders, community organizers, and elected leaders @CMCrystalHudson, @CMShahanaHanif, and @CabanD22 for joining us at City Hall to demand affordable transit for all!

📢📢 Working New Yorkers to @nycmayor: Expand Fair Fares! Working-class, transit-dependent bus and subway riders who keep our city running deserve affordable transit. Nobody knows that better than the workers @32bjseiu, who have joined @1199SEIU, @rwdsustronger, @transportworker + more in calling on Mayor Mamdani to expand Fair Fares and cut transit costs for millions of workers! Together, these unions represent hundreds of thousands of New Yorkers from home health aides to airport workers, many of whom face massive affordability challenges and would greatly benefit from expanding Fair Fares’ income threshold to reach more low-wage workers.

"To help struggling riders like me, who face impossible choices with every commute, @NYCMayor must extend Fair Fares to New Yorkers earning up to 300% of the federal poverty level," writes our member and @1199SEIU home healthcare aide Susie Kamara.
