Public transportation is a cornerstone of a strong, connected region, and right now its importance is only growing. We’re calling on the legislature to prioritize a 15% increase in STOA funding to ensure our transit systems can continue delivering dependable, high-quality service. This investment would strengthen the mobility network that keeps our communities connected to healthcare, education, jobs, and opportunities. Help us move the Capital Region forward!

With fuel costs remaining high, public transit is more essential than ever- serving as a critical lifeline that connects people to jobs, education, healthcare, and everyday opportunities. As a national leader in mobility options, we are urging the legislature to support at least a 15% increase in STOA funding. This investment will help us maintain reliable, high-quality service and ensure our communities remain connected while upholding the standard of service we’re proud to deliver.
