Bill > H3408

This bill establishes a commission to study the feasibility and implementation of a subsidized public transportation benefit program for employees of the Commonwealth. The commission, which includes representatives from various state agencies and the legislature, will investigate the creation of a monthly transit pass benefit, collaboration with transportation authorities, tax and employee labor contract implications, and funding sources. The commission is required to convene within two months and submit a report of its findings and recommendations within one year of the bill's passage. The goal is to incentivize greater use of public transportation by state employees, reduce roadway congestion, and decrease carbon emissions from commuter vehicles.
