Youth Leaders Save Student Metrocards
Thousands of students across New York City are celebrating their hard-won victory to preserve free school transportation for the city's K-12 students.

The Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA) announced June 18 that it would continue to provide free student Metrocards, after state legislators agreed to help fill the authority's budget shortfall.

Since December, when the MTA first proposed the cutting the program, youth leaders of Make the Road New York and the citywide Urban Youth Collaborative have sprung into action to get their message heard, that students have a right to free education, and free education means free transportation to school.
