After 40 years #SEPTA’s first female train engineer - Jackie Pettyjohn aka First Lady of SEPTA - celebrated her last day yesterday. The crowd who came out to celebrate is evidence of the impact and inspiration she leaves behind. Congrats Jackie! #ISEPTAPHILLY #HowWeRoll

With or without an 76ers arena, we MUST fund SEPTA. My first legislative session of the year is two weeks away and I’m looking forward to ensuring public transportation remains affordable, reliable & accessible for ALL. Let’s win todav Philadelphia Eagles 🏈 🦅

Challenges at SEPTA affect everyone, whether they use the system or not. This gridphilly piece lays out the impact on students through the lens of our comrade and TFP member, Tariem from SEPTA's CAC. We need stable, reliable funding now! gridphilly.com/blog-home/2025…

The most important investment that Governor Josh Shapiro could make in center city is permanent SEPTA funding plus enough capital to complete Reimagining Regional Rail and transform RR into a true S-Bahn, fully overhaul all CC subway stations, and build a new intercity bus terminal

Great summation from @yfreemark Streetsblog USA of transit expansion last year and in the year ahead - where's SEPTA , you ask? Even the many miles of regional rail track already in place are often barely used; we need state money ASAP. usa.streetsblog.org/2025/01/09/yon…

Imagine a PA where public transit works for everyone—affordable, accessible, and reliable. That future starts with sustainable funding for SEPTA and transit systems statewide. Temporary fixes won’t cut it. inquirer.com/opinion/editor…

Cutting Op-Ed in Globe Times and we couldn't agree more: the inability to fund SEPTA illuminates our city and state's lack of investment in the working class - the base of our entire economy. swglobetimes.com/septas-death-s…
