Protect Your Job and Strengthen Your Union - Fight Back Against High Gas Prices
The high cost of fuel has been a double-edged sword for the transit industry. While ridership has surged, transit agencies, which are running at capacity, are also being squeezed by the increased cost of diesel fuel.
With a massive number of commuters switching from driving to transit as the price of gasoline climbs towards five dollars per gallon, and perhaps beyond, transit service should be expanding and ATU membership should be growing in size as a result.
However, the opposite is happening. Due to the increased price of diesel fuel, layoffs and service cuts are occurring at transit systems throughout the United States. ATU members can help turn this situation around by urging their U.S. Senators to pass legislation that would provide fuel subsidies to transit agencies.
We must act fast! The Senate will only be in session for a limited number of days between now and the end of the year.
