The people suing to stop the fare hikes are NOT your friends.

As SEPTA cuts go into effect across the Philly region, a top Senate Republican leader is hosting a fundraiser 32 SEPTA bus routes were cut and 16 were shortened, forced by massive budget deficits and the lack of a new budget in Harrisburg.

While Philly students are waking up hours early to make it to the first day of school on time and nurses are navigating hours-long bus delays, the person holding SEPTA hostage is at a clay shoot

Let’s Be Clear: PA Republicans’ Refusal to Fund SEPTA Is About Philadelphia β€” and Racism The state senate doesn't want to fund SEPTA (Southeastern Pennsylvania Transportation Authority) because they're afraid of cities, poor people, and people of color.

My 2nd article I released yesterday, is still about #SEPTA but covers how obviously spiteful the GOP are towards it. gillieshere.substack.com/p/lets-be-cl...

Republicans are wrong about SEPTA in every single way possible. SEPTA (Southeastern Pennsylvania Transportation Authority) and all public transit agencies in the state of PA have been held hostage by the Republican-controlled state senate.

Hello! I recently wrote two articles about SEPTA, PA GOP, and the funding crisis. This is the first one:

I caught up with SEPTA Board Chair Ken Lawrence while advocating for fully funded mass transit in Harrisburg.

By investing in public transportation we strengthen our communities, Philly, and the entire commonwealth!

Thank you @councilmemberjg.bsky.social!
A budget without transit funding will utterly devastate our region.

I wrote an Op-Ed about SEPTA funding and how our Agency is actually one of the most efficient in the country with handling money.
The last thing we need is for SEPTA to get defunded, enjoy the gift link πŸ€™

East-facing walk signal at NW corner of Broad and Ellsworth has been out for a few weeks. I was hoping it’d magically get fixed but it didn’t so I filed a 311 request.

If you see something broken, please report it! Here’s the website but there’s also an app! www.phila.gov/departments/...

The whole visibility thing between metros and trams feels like a false dichotomy. Like elevated metros show the city too. But idk I guess Jason only knows about subways
