“Uptown Manhattan has been disproportionally hit hardest by subway derailments, commuter delays, fires, congestion, cancellations, and a host of New York transit issues. I am responding to requests from my constituents and hosting a community discussion to address the nature of our transit problem, look at budgetary solutions, and efforts to address immediate repairs. I want commuters to know that I am aware of a crisis that has plagued our city far too long. Saturday’s discussion is to send the message to commuters to say that I hear them, I stand with them, and I am ready to address this crisis once and for all.” – Rep. Adriano Espaillat
