Invest in Metro and lobby Congress to reinstate the full transit subsidy for Federal employees.
Congress just cut the public transit subsidy for Federal employees in half, which means up to $1,200 a year in lost benefits, while wages are frozen. This will force many DC residents into their cars, making DC's terrible traffic even worse. In addition, that's $1,200 that can't be spent at local businesses and invested in the community. Metro connects the city and the region, and is key to making DC "one city." Let's keep it strong.
