Permits the governor to direct the metropolitan transportation authority to provide free transportation to students during a state of emergency

This bill allows New York's governor to require the Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA) to provide free bus and train rides for K-12 students in cities with over 1 million residents during a declared state of emergency. It covers all transit services, including standard and express buses, until the emergency ends. The policy directly affects students in large urban areas like New York City and mandates no cost to riders during emergencies such as natural disasters or public health crises.
