Elevator Action Group

The Elevator Action Group formed in 2017 because subway accessibility was a low priority. The group was made up of organizations and individuals. Some later became plaintiffs in lawsuits against the MTA. Members organized postcard campaigns, held rallies to raise awareness, and advocated directly with MTA leaders. The group continues to rally for better maintenance and notifications of outages.
