Issue Position: Effective Public Transit for Metropolitan Detroit

Issue Position

I believe that transportation is more than just getting around. It means holding down a job, getting there on time, and accessing resources that are otherwise out of reach. Public transportation also brings people together. We all know that the benefits of public transportation systems are numerous. The freedom to find a job a little further away, attend a better school, and shop at a grocery store is essential. Detroit and its closest neighbors, including Grosse Pointe, have fallen behind in the investment required to modernize the roads and support public transit options. In order to compete against other top-tier cities, the Detroit region needs a comprehensive, inclusive, and cost-effective public transit system.
