Long Island Bus riders, students, local elected officials and various other groups are hosting a “People’s Hearing” on the privatization of Long Island Bus, since the county doesn’t appear to be holding hearings of its own and much of the plan remains unclear. This hearing has a new location, the Ethical Humanist Society of Long Island, 38 Old Country Road, Garden City, NY on Wednesday, August 31st at 6:30 pm.

Anyone interested in supporting LI Bus in Nassau County should come out and let elected officials know why Nassau County needs good transit service, what it means to you and what a privatized bus system will do to your wallet. (More details about the hearing to come.)
