The Ithaca Democratic Socialists of America and the Ithaca Sunrise Movement rallied on May 2 to remove ride fares from local public transport.
TCAT had requested an 8% increase from its three underwriters, including Cornell University, which agreed Jan. 20 to increase funding by 5%, rejecting the 8% increase.
Members of the Ithaca community have shown they are ready for free public transit. A petition was launched March 3 to make Tompkins Consolidated Area Transit (TCAT) free.
