State lawmakers to unveil bill for free RIPTA bus fares
State lawmakers will soon introduce legislation for free fares on Rhode Island Public Transit Authority buses, an effort Democrats say will fight climate change, boost the economy and foster racial justice.
"One of the most significant barriers to equitable transportation, particularly for low-income families, is the cost. We know that low-income families and people of color use [public] transportation at least twice as much as white families." said Representative Felix.
