U.S. DOT Secretary Sean Duffy criticized the New York City subway system, labeling it as 'dirty and dangerous' during his visit to New Jersey. His remarks included threats to cut federal funding unless the system improves. Duffy's comments sparked backlash from advocacy groups like Riders Alliance, which highlighted the necessity for safe and accessible public transit. Duffy also erroneously addressed congestion pricing issues while skipping accountability. This sparked discussion regarding federal responsibility in improving urban transit and the ongoing safety of subway riders despite reports indicating crime levels are decreasing.
The secretary's job is more than cutting videos, filling potholes, and feuding with governors. Millions of public transit riders... count on him to help deliver safe, affordable... public transport.
Wouldn't it be nice if your tax dollars actually went to making your life better? ... cities like New York aren't doing it with their subway system. It's dirty and dangerous.
