NEW YORK TO RECEIVE $6B OF FEDERAL AID FOR TRANSIT NEW YORK TO RECEIVE $6B OF FEDERAL AID FOR TRANSIT: New York City’s subways and commuter rails are getting a $6 billion chunk of federal COVID-19 relief funds. Sen. Chuck Schumer announced Wednesday the Metropolitan Transportation Authority has received the money as part of more than $14.5 billion in overall federal relief aid. The aid, contained in COVID-19 relief bills during both the Trump and Biden administrations, has helped the MTA stave off threatened service cutbacks, layoffs and fare hikes.
