Ride for Your Rights: T Riders Union Rally for Debt Relief

The T Riders Union (TRU), a public transit riders advocacy group, is holding a rally in front of the State House tomorrow to protest the T's ballooning debt that keeps shoveling the burden onto riders in the form of 3 fare hikes in 6 years.

Riders calling for the State legislature to pass MBTA debt relief legislation and will be joined by co-sponsors of the bill (Representatives Carl Sciortino, Liz Malia, and Brian Wallace.)

It'll be a fun rally complete with political theatre and a rider being "crushed" by a massive weight with "MBTA debt" written on the sides.

Join us @ noon tomorrow for this rally which will kickoff a week of outreach and education about the bill, which will help prevent the ongoing cycle of fare increases. (They're already talking about the NEXT fare increase!)
