Urgent Action – Please Call TODAY:
The state budget has moved to conference committee and may be finished today. Contact the Republicans listed below and let them know the Medicaid MCO tax must be fixed.
Tell them transit access is essential to job access and skills training. If it’s not fixed transit agencies around the state will lose over $40 million starting in 2019. That would be 10% cuts for RTA.
Mention Senator Dolan’s amendment as a possible solution.
Senator Dolan’s amendment would reset the proposed franchise fee July 1, 2018, to keep the state, counties and transit authorities whole, and retain the Administration’s one-time allocation for counties and transit authorities in the first year of the state budget. His proposal would not impact the state’s General Revenue Fund at all.
