Speak out against the MTA's fare hike sham!

The fare hike is a sham. That's what New York's state and city comptrollers just found in reviewing the MTA's finances.

They found that the MTA kept two sets of books, "one for the public and one that it kept to itself"- and hid a surplus of $500 million while calling for a $2 subway and bus fare. That's why we've sued the MTA. A state judge is now deciding whether to order a rollback of the fare.

The NYPIRG Straphangers Campaign urges you to speak out! Here's what you can do:

  1. Show Your Support!

    Come to the "ROLL BACK THE FARE" Rally
    Friday, May 9th, 1:30 - 2:30 pm

  2. Call Governor Pataki Today! 212-681-4580
    He controls the MTA. Tell him: Make the MTA open its books!
