Christine Quinn Joins Other Politicians Opposing A Fare Hike…..
A few hours before yesterday’s initial MTA public hearings, the speaker of the City Council Christine Quinn added her name to the long list of politicians who are opposed to a fare hike. Here are a few comments from her including where she urges the MTA board to “exhaust every possible alternative funding stream before asking straphangers to dig deeper into their wallets.” She also went on to say “Until the MTA has demonstrated that in order to meet operating expenses they must tap hardworking commuters, I will oppose any fare increases.”
Lets hope Christine’s influence can help the cause in preventing this fare hike!
