Assembly Resolution No. 75

BY: M. of A. Gonzalez-Rojas

 MEMORIALIZING Governor Kathy Hochul to proclaim
 February 4, 2025, as Transit Equity Day in the State
 of New York

 WHEREAS, Transit Equity Day commemorates the birthday of civil
rights icon Rosa Parks, a trailblazing figure in the Civil Rights
movement that ended legal segregation in the United States; and

 WHEREAS, In celebration of Rosa Parks' life and legacy, February 4th
serves as a national day of action to further the goal of providing
frequent, reliable, accessible, equitable, and affordable public
transportation as a civil right; and

 WHEREAS, Increasing access to such transportation has been and will
continue to be the vanguard in any effort to address the persistent race
and class disparities that remain omnipresent in the United States and
transition to a more just, equitable, sustainable society; and

 WHEREAS, As the most transit-dependent state in the United States
with the busiest commuter rail system in the country and largest subway
system in the world, New York has and will continue to play a crucial
role in advancing these principles; and

 WHEREAS, Racial inequity is realized in our built infrastructure, in
highways that bisect and segregate communities, traffic that poisons the
air, and disparate service qualities dependent on locale and mode; and

 WHEREAS, Despite the advantages afforded by our legacy rail system,
this pattern remains pervasive in New York, particularly in transit
deserts in boroughs beyond Manhattan where riders unable to afford high
commuter rail fares are subjected to slower, less frequent and reliable
buses that rob them of time spent with friends, family, and loved ones;
and

 WHEREAS, Much work remains to ensure that New Yorkers of all
abilities irrespective of race or income, are able to live near and
access high quality, affordable public transportation; now, therefore,
be it

 RESOLVED, That this Legislative Body pause in its deliberations to
memorialize Governor Kathy Hochul to February 4, 2025, as Transit Equity
Day in the State of New York; and be it further

 RESOLVED, That a copy of this Resolution, suitably engrossed, be
transmitted to The Honorable Kathy Hochul, Governor of the State of New
York.
