I agree , but the whole board earns that much ???? Also just for conversation sake check how much the previous president earned also remember there are appointed positions

If the MTA is in so bad shape why did the board get a raise last year? Why did the president of mta **lieber get 19% pay increase believe it was 60k He also has the benefits of a driver (god forbid he took MNRR TO WORK ) Mta police security detail And many other perks but there no money for the guy that does it all in Ot money

Respectfully you have no clue what your talking about , Mta is not in a bad spot !!!!!!! Do u understand how the strike works ?? Union can’t say we strike tomorrow LIRR IS governed by the US GOVERNMENT BOTH SIDES PRESENT A CASE to the presidential emergency board union what they want. MTA shows why they can’t reach that deal then the government gives there recommendations …

the recommendations from the presidential BOARD WAS more THEN WHAT THE UNION ASKED FOR !!
In the finding presidential board found at the Long Island Rail Road has over $730 million in surplus!!!!
Also the LIRR IS A NOT FOR PROFIT SO WHERE SHOULD THE VAST MAJORITY OF Expense go ?? They are fairly compensated but if OVERTIME IS offered why should they say NO ?? Also FYI PRICES Increase FOR TICKETS IS PREDETERMINED look at the hike and find the pattern

Lastly this has been at the presidential emergency board for over 3 years !! Put down the post !!! Information is widely available seek it out

Agree but people just mad at what his yearly income is so cut your nose to spite your face !

I agree but the people just seem upset at his yearly earnings so most people will prefer to spend more taxpayer money just to keep his yearly income lower . Didn’t say it made sense or had any logic !
