N.J.S.A. 27:1A-64 — Findings, declarations.

27:1A-64 Findings, declarations. 1. The Legislature hereby finds and declares that: a. Many senior citizens and persons with disabilities, including disabled veterans, in this State depend on public transportation facilities to obtain the necessities of life, including food, clothing, and medical services, and to visit their families and friends; ready access to transportation services is thus essential to their health, safety, and welfare. b. Many senior citizens and persons with disabilities, including disabled veterans, live on fixed or limited incomes, and the high cost of transportation services makes it difficult for them to take advantage of these services. c. (Deleted by amendment, P.L.1999, c.179). d. (Deleted by amendment, P.L.1999, c.179). e. It is therefore a valid public purpose, and in the best interest of all the people of this State, to provide for reduced bus and rail fares for senior citizens, persons with disabilities, and all disabled veterans at State expense. L.1973, c.126, s.1; amended 1975, c.271, s.1; 1999, c.179, s.1; 2017, c.20, s.1.
