Public transit funding is WAY out of whack!

In Philadelphia, you can ride the rail all over the city for no charge. Here in Westmoreland, it’ll cost you $4 to get from Greensburg to New Stanton, one way. During the budget hearing with PennDOT, I brought up that Gov. Shapiro wants to allocate over $1 billion, or 10% of the Commonwealth’s sales tax, for public transit. But 82% of that would go transit authorities in Philly and Pittsburgh.
