For those who have been directly impacted by the government shutdown—Trans*It is offering rides, deliveries, and services at 50% off until the shutdown ends.
This means that most rides, deliveries, and services for federal workers and those who have not received Snap benefits will only be $6-10 anywhere in Des Moines or the surrounding areas. And if the ride, delivery, or service is directly related to your Snap benefits or federal job(like a ride to work or groccery shopping/delivery), you can apply for an even deeper discount or free assistance. Just ask our AI assistant Sabrina how to apply.
No one should have to choose between putting food in their bellies and their pets, education, or even showing up to work or class.
Yes, we have and will continue to do most of this *AT* and *BELOW* cost because Trans*It was created to uplift our communities—and now we're putting our money where our mouths are.
Edit: We understand the shutdown may end soon, but the effects will linger. We will be continuing to provide this discount service to those in need until federal worker's paychecks are stabilized and SNAP benefits are reinstated.
