SO THESE MOFO'S cut bus service by 20%, then by 10% but how is it that their budget is slightly higher than last year? pic.twitter.com/wH8BxBb089

Not only did TriMet NOT impose a hiring freeze, they ADDED an additional $5 million to their personnel budget! pic.twitter.com/olfqJL643E

**Passenger Revenue - The revenue TriMet earns from passenger fares covers more than $56.2 million in current annual operating costs, or 7.7% of our operating expenses**

(this shit is coming directly out of the TriMet budget document)

***TriMet will receive approximately $195 million
in CRRSAA funding. The funding has been used to prevent, prepare for and respond to COVID-19**

WTF DID THESE SHIT HEADS DO WITH THIS MONEY?

**TriMet has received federal funding from the CARES Act during FY2020 and FY2021 totaling just under $185 million.**

WTF did these muthfukers do with that cash?

They didn't restore the bus service so where did it go?

RESTORED BUS SERVICE!
