    Editorial | City Hall must make the most of ‘Fair Fares’ for eligible New Yorkers

    The article urges Mayor Zohran Mamdani and City Council Speaker Julie Menin to expand the 'Fair Fares' program by increasing funding and improving accessibility. The program offers discounted transit fares for low-income New Yorkers, but faces challenges in enrollment and limited coverage of express buses and commuter rail. Expanding eligibility to 350% of the poverty line and including additional transit modes could save costs and reduce commute times for thousands.
