What can we do to get this fully funded? Roosevelt Boulevard Subway, PATCO to University City and Broad Street Line to Navy Yard are all on the unfunded list.

Derailed: Looming funding cuts to Philadelphia's transit system offer a lesson for Chicago chicagotribune.com/2025/07/27/tra…

Hey, Senator Joe Picozzi - You talk a big game about being a supporter of @septa. Ideas are great but what’s needed now is action. Please go back to Harrisburg NOW and pass transit funding! We are facing devastating cuts here in Philly without action from you and your Republican

So why haven’t PA Senate Republicans put public transit up for a vote on the floor of the PA Senate? Can Senator Joe Picozzi explain what is going on here? We are less than a month away from devastating cuts to Philly’s transit system. PA House Democrats have repeatedly passed our plan to fund

I am still waiting to hear a peep from Senator Joe Picozzi. Will he publicly demand that his leadership return to Harrisburg and schedule a vote on transit funding? Or will he continue to stay silent and not criticize Senator Joe Pittman for failing to act?

Defunding SEPTA isn’t saving money; it’s costing billions in lost productivity. Southeastern PA drives 40% of the state’s GDP. Undermining transit hurts the very region that helps subsidize the rest of Pennsylvania.

The PA Senate must fund SEPTA or service cuts start August  24. Call Sen Picozzi (215) 281‑2539 | Sen Farry (215) 638‑1784 | Sen Pennicuick (215) 541‑2388

Will Senator Joe Picozzi demand that PA Senate Republicans come back to Harrisburg and hold a vote on transit funding? Until he says that publicly, everything else that comes out of his mouth about SEPTA is meaningless.

This map from the Philadelphia 2045 plan may look like a dream, but it’s an achievable one if the state adequately funds SEPTA and allows municipalities to tax themselves to support public transit.

Time's Up - the PA Senate Republicans needs to get serious & #FundSEPTA Now before 53,000 kids need to find their own way to school. #FundSEPTA Now because hardworking Pennsylvanians are counting on us to get to work. Philly is counting on us to #SaveSEPTA. Time's Up - call Sen. Picozzi.

Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro called out GOP State Sen. Joe Picozzi while discussing the push to secure funding for SEPTA as they face a looming "transit death spiral." Lauren Mayk has the story: on.nbc10.com/2Lmm5uh

Southeastern Pennsylvania risks falling behind peer regions due to SEPTA's chronic underfunding. Fully funding SEPTA and advancing major projects like the Roosevelt Boulevard Subway would send a powerful message: our region is serious about equitable growth, climate resilience,

Republicans are holding up transit funding but don’t want to admit it. And now they are outraged that Democrats are calling them out. Maybe just pass SEPTA funding and stop with the nonsense.

Rep. Ben Waxman (@repbenwaxman) 's Twitter Profile Photo

When have Picozzi, Farry and Pennucuick said this? What level of funding do they support? Have they publicly demanded that their leadership hold a vote?

Instead of advancing our High Capacity Transit Expansions in Philadelphia, we're settling for bare-minimum investments—just enough to get by. If you're a business leader, ask yourself: Is this the environment you want to invest in? Or would you rather set up in a city that

Its Fundamentally Hilarious how these right wing groups always pretend to care about high taxes and government spending, but always avoid talking about how PennDoT's highway widening yearly budget alone is 4 times that of SEPTA's!

People love to say "septa needs to be audited" in the comments section, but guess what? Septa is regularly audited. You can find their financial statements fairly easily. Here is one route, which contains their audited financial statements. septabonds.com/septa-investor…
