"The senseless violence that happened on the system today," said ATU Local 241 President Keith Hill. "What if it was a baby on the bus, what if it was a senior citizen."Less than a week ago, a man was shot on the CTA Red Line as it was approaching the 47th Street stop.

Hill said the union's contract is not up until December 2023, and complaints have fallen on deaf ears. Operators want their own police force, a safe enclosure around bus drivers and a way for riders to get help immediately. "CTA, the city, the state need to come up with a modern system for response time not just for CTA, for everything in the city," Hill said.that I have read and agree
