Our Top Priority
For too long, we've thrown money at "roads and bridges to nowhere"
rather than making smart investments in public transportation. Public
transportation improvements will reduce our dependence on oil, relieve
traffic congestion and cut global warming. Investing in high-speed
rail, rapid bus systems and modern metro service will also create more
permanent jobs and long-term economic benefits than money spent
building new roads. With higher gas prices and a suffering economy,
it's time to prioritize public transportation.
