Advocacy for Our Members & Public Transit 

Every day, NYPTA fights and supports New York State's transit industry professionals, businesses, and communities they connect. 

NYPTA is your voice across New York State government—from the Governor’s Office and Executive Departments to the State Legislature. State leaders recognize NYPTA as a valued source of information and guidance on transit industries. Our collective voice ensures that the needs of our professionals are heard.

Make Your Voice Heard!

Advocacy is everyone’s job. Please make your voice heard on issues affecting our industry by telling your State Legislators where you stand.
