Governor Shapiro, thank you so much for everything you've done for SEPTA and continue to do. We're so grateful to have you in our court. I stepped up last year to flex $153 million of funding that would have gone to other road and bridge projects and instead put it right here in SEPTA for mass transit. This year, the House of Representatives, under Chairman Nielsen's leadership, passed my proposal for recurring funding for mass transit five different times. Five different times. (07:23–07:40)
CLAIM
Asserts that $153 million was redirected from road and bridge projects to SEPTA for mass transit.
