State Senate Co-Leader: City Should 'Absolutely' Kick in $1.3 Billion for MTA Budget
2015-09-10 21:26:57| Railroads - Topix.net
State Senate Co-Leader Jeffrey Klein said today he agreed with Metropolitan Transportation Authority Chairman Thomas Prendergast's call for the city to chip in an extra $1.3 billion to for the transit system's repair construction and repair fund-a request that Mayor Bill de Blasio has bristled at and city Comptroller Scott Stringer has called "insulting." Echoing the arguments of Mr. Prendergast-an appointee of Gov. Andrew Cuomo-Mr. Klein, a Bronx Democrat, pointed out that the city historically shouldered much of the burden of the MTA's capital budget prior to its brush with municipal bankruptcy in the 1970s.
