Access to transportation should be a right, not a privilege! 4.4 million people in Illinois don't have a license & struggle with daily challenges as #nondrivers. This week we're joining @americawalks for #WeekwithoutDriving #WeekWithoutDrivingChicago.

We just delivered cold water bottles for two hours at 31st and Prospect bus stops. Hundreds of riders are waiting in extreme heat for infrequent buses. The last thing poor people in KC need is eliminating Zero Fare. Where are our leaders? @RideKCTransit
