Forum, WMATA-ville Force Focus on Transit Issues

Last night's Fair Transit Forum featured an overflow crowd, heartfelt testimony from workers, and a strong show of solidarity from riders and allies, reports ATU Local 1764. And supporters continued to stop by the local's WMATA-ville encampment outside Transdev, which continues today (see On The Line). "Now it's time to send DC politicians a message," says Local 1764. Click here now to sign a letter urging adoption of "public transit policies that reflect the priorities of D.C. working families, rather than those of big developers and corporate contractors."
