It's Time For MCTS To Listen To
Workers And Passengers

Changes to Management Approved by County Board Transportation Committee  --
On to the Full Board July 25!
For too long County Executive Chris Abele has been running the show at the Milwaukee County Transit System - and doing a terrible job.

It's time for MCTS leadership to accept worker and community members on its board of Directors.

Working with Amani United, ATU 998 has led the fight for transit leadership that reflects the needs of riders and employees.

Last week the County Board transit committee approved a proposal to restructure the board. Details

​
The proposal goes to the full board July 25.

There's A Transit Crisis Brewing In Milwaukee

County Executive Chris Abele wants to make deep cuts in Milwaukee County Transit System service. And he wants to cut healthcare benefits for transit workers as part of a new labor agreement.

Abele is trying to "divide and conquer." (Sound familiar?) He wants to pit transit workers against bus riders, saying bus service must be cut even more if workers don't agree to thousands of dollars a year in new healthcare costs.

We say: Not true. In reality transit workers and transit users are natural allies.

Join us in rejecting Abele's cynical game. ​

Healthcare, A Raise We Can Live With and Better Transit For All!

Why We Reject Coinsurance
Higher worker costs, lower-quality healthcare.
