New Jersey has the nation’s second-largest public transportation system, moving over 720,000 people daily. Democrats have increased funding each year to keep transportation accessible and affordable.

How New Jersey Democrats Have Delivered: 

• Restored funding for the largest federal transit investment in U.S. history by doubling train capacity between New Jersey and New York and creating thousands of good-paying union jobs.

• Brought back billions of federal dollars through the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law, to repair New Jersey’s aging roads and bridges.

• Funded the NJDOT Municipal Aid Grant Program, which offers competitive, transportation-focused grants to municipalities.

• Invested in Newark Liberty International Airport with terminal renovations, AirTrain upgrades, and improved roadways and taxiways.

• Expanded Accessibility for NJ TRANSIT’s Access Link by requiring continued operation during states of emergency (when safe) and ensuring individuals receive reduced fare ID cards at the time they are deemed eligible.

What New Jersey Democrats Are Fighting For:

• Reliable, affordable, and accessible public transportation for families and commuters.

• Tackling congestion and aging infrastructure by investing in mass transit and upgrading roads and rail systems.

• Improving the Northeast Corridor service by holding the federal government accountable for breakdowns caused by neglected Amtrak equipment.
