Over 40 volunteers and coalition members came together last night for a ‘save SEPTA’ organizing meeting filled with a scavenger hunt, postcard writing, and a plush trolley! Thank you everyone for spending your evening with us and for signing up to join some of our many upcoming actions. If you missed last night, no worries! Take a look at ways you can join the action below:

Use the Transit for all PA! petition to email your legislators. This is the quickest way to add your voice to the over 21,000 (and counting) people telling their representatives to stop transit cuts in Pennsylvania. 

Share the petition link with your friends, family, and other communities via group chats and other communal spaces.

Write and call your legislators. Good old fashioned pen to paper style, look up your legislators office using this site and send them your SEPTA story and why you care if funding is cut. 

Attendees writing postcards to their legislators.
