Low-­‐Wage Workers Will Suffer the Most From Privatization of Nassau’s Buses A report

Final Report-Immigrants Will Disproportionately Suffer From Long Island Bus Privatization

2017 Emergency Transportation Funding Letters

Emergency Action Plan to Preserve OUR Buses:

1) Include an emergency appropriation in the NYS budget to stave off cuts in Nassau bus service and restore service cut from Suffolk bus service.

 

2) Ensure that ridesharing legislation includes a mandate for a $0.50 surcharge for all rides on Long Island be directed to the Long Island bus systems and not the MTA, as was originally proposed.

 

3) Require that any Federal infrastructure dollars secured for the region have funding included for operating and capital budgets for LI bus service.

 

4) Conduct reviews of NICE and SCT routes by Nassau and Suffolk County to look for efficiencies and local offsets, if needed, to match State and Federal assistance for continued bus service.

We are also getting letters signed that we will be bringing up to Albany to further advocate for Long Island Buses, which are attached below!
