Take Action - Contact your Representatives
TWU Local 100 wants the politicians in Albany to make
spitting, shoving, kicking, and other physical contact
against transit workers, a crime.
Read the MTA Coalition's Letter here.
Right now, these vile and unacceptable acts are only
considered violations — like a parking ticket. We can change that.
Tell your state Senator and Assembly Member to support
legislation making physical contact with a transit worker —
including spitting — a misdemeanor crime: aggravated
harassment, punishable by up to a year in jail.
It just takes a minute. Call them. Email them.
Give them a piece of your mind.
