Let’s be clear, Charlie Baker has been lying to us.
Just a few months ago, Baker declared that the MBTA is “heading in the right direction.” Now after a bombshell report was released by a panel chosen by the Baker administration, we have learned that “safety is not the priority at the T.”
That’s one lie.
Here’s another one:
Charlie Baker has maintained for years that the MBTA doesn’t need additional revenue to operate in a reliable way. The Panel’s report clearly disagrees, as does just about everyone who used the T even occasionally.
Charlie Baker’s failure at the MBTA is putting the people of our Commonwealth in danger. Can you rush a $10 donation so that we can keep the pressure on Baker to fix the T?
This report isn’t about delayed trains, or infrequent service, it's about SAFETY.
If we are to believe that Charlie Baker is the excellent manager he claims to be, then there is only one explanation for the completely dysfunctional state of our public transportation system: he doesn’t care about those of us who use it.
We can’t waste any time when the stakes are this high. Make a $10 contribution right now to show Charlie Baker that safety needs to be the priority at the MBTA.
