All Souls EarthCare Team
Date: Passed: Thursday, August 12, 2021, 3:00 pm EDT
In its third year as a member of Faith In Action - Indiana, All Souls took a lead role in Get Out the Vote efforts to expand Indianapolis’ mass transit system. More city buses would provide our low-income neighbors better access to jobs, schools and shopping while reducing carbon emissions and particulate pollution - a major contributor to athsma and other health issues in under served areas of the city.
While expanded mass transit was projected to bring economic and environmental benefits to all of Indianapolis, it was most needed by people living in Indianapolis’ poorest neighborhoods. The insufficient nature of the old bus system (e.g., 2-hour cross-town commutes) excluded our most marginalized workers to compete for higher-paying jobs.
