Statement from Massachusetts Democratic Party Chair Gus Bickford on Baker’s Veto of Low-Income MBTA Fare Program
“It’s Friday night at the end of another chaotic week, and Charlie Baker is hoping you don’t notice his decision to veto a low-income fare program for rail and bus riders across our state. It should come as no surprise that Baker is vetoing this program, because the people who would be most helped are the very people he thinks of the least. It is hard to fathom the uncompassionate thinking that is required to make such a decision in this unprecedented time when so many are suffering.”
