Fare-Free Transit Briefing
As you may know, Transit Equity Day takes place annually on February 4th to commemorate the birthday of Rosa Parks and declaring that public transit is a civil right. Many transit systems across the country offer fare-free rides on February 4th and systems across the country are exploring options to go partially or entirely fare-free. The Future of Transportation Caucus is excited to hold this briefing that will cover the promise and benefits of Fare-Free Transit, equitable alternatives to fare-free transit, and congressional action that can be taken to improve transit equity across the country.
We are excited to have panelists from:
- Center for American Progress
- Livable Streets
- Ride KC
- Transportation Workers Union
- Alexandria Transit Company (DASH)
