The NYPIRG Straphangers Campaign is a dedicated advocacy group in New York City that fights for safe, reliable, accessible, and affordable mass transit for the city's eight and a half million daily subway and bus riders. Since 1979, they have been instrumental in organizing the public to advocate for improved service, affordable fares, and the expansion of public transportation.
Through their efforts, the Straphangers Campaign has successfully secured billions of dollars in funding for subway improvements, won fare discounts for low-income New Yorkers, and pushed for redesigning and enhancing local bus services. Their ongoing mission is to ensure that all New Yorkers have access to a world-class public transportation system that is reliable, affordable, and safe.
