The measure was shoehorned into the budget with no public debate or comment.

Deputy Senate Majority Leader Michael Gianaris is leading the push in Albany for a permanent $45 million fare-free MTA bus program — the latest cave-in to lawlessness.

An MTA employee was arrested on the job Tuesday after he allegedly smacked a cop when he was confronted for fare evasion at a Queens subway station, law enforcement sources said. 

After the MTA spent $700,000 to install new entry gates at an NYC station to combat turnstile jumping, a subway hack proved that the design is more vulnerable to fare-beaters — and that the problem can't be fixed with new technology.

MTA chairman Janno Lieber punched back at critics of the agency's attempts to curb fare beating by installing timers on emergency exit doors near turnstiles.

The Metropolitan Transportation Authority says it loses $690 million a year from people jumping the turnstile or boarding buses without paying.

Gov. Kathy Hochul is backing the MTA's push to overhaul how fare-beating is policed with proposals that would increase fines for repeat offenders — but let first-timers off with just a warning.
