Ode to OMNY

## 🪦 RIP Student OMNY 🪦 **Student OMNY cards are dying — and half a million NYC students are about to feel the consequences.** Student OMNY cards deactivate after **August 31**, leaving hundreds of thousands of students without the free transit they’ve relied on all year long. In other words, the half million students who rely on Student OMNY have no way to get to the first day of school without paying out of pocket — or fare evading...so we’re holding a funeral. Join **Transportation Alternatives Youth Activist Committee and other NYC students** on the **Tweed Courthouse Steps at 1 PM on Wednesday, September 9** to mourn the loss of our Student OMNY cards. We’ll deliver eulogies remembering all the places we were able to go, people we were able to see, and opportunities we were able to access thanks to free student transit. 🖤 **Wear black and come dressed for the occasion.** Want to help us make props for the funeral? Join our **art-ivation** at the Transportation Alternatives office at **111 John Street, Suite #260** on **Sept 4th from 4-6PM**. Student transit shouldn’t have an expiration date. **Come mourn Student OMNY — and make some noise for the students who need it back.**
