The Lackawanna Coalition has called for the addition of representatives of New Jersey Transit’s riders as voting members of NJT’s Board of Directors. Senators Raymond J. Lesniak (D-Union) and Nicholas J. Sacco (D-Hudson-Bergen) have proposed Senate Bill S-2084, which calls for voting representatives of the riding public; one for rail riders and the other for bus riders. The Coalition has also call for the Labor delegate, currently a nonvoting Board position, to have a vote, as well.
