    2.  Ask your company and groups you’re a member of (service clubs, neighborhood associations and religious organizations) to pass a resolution showing support. See a sample resolution and those groups that already have passed one here.

    Thank you for your interest in building grassroots support for more and better transit in Indiana. ICAT members are passionately committed to transit as part of a balanced transportation system that will improve quality of life for all Hoosiers.

    Fulfilling this vision is going to require hard work and cooperation, as transit is an issue that affects us all. Regardless of your economic situation, urban or rural setting, or concern for “going green” vs. “making green,” there are many reasons to care about improved transit and to support ICAT’s work.

    • Our alliance represents a wide spectrum of business and community interests, but we all agree that transit options are vital to the future of our community.
    • As business and community leaders, we understand the need to invest tax dollars wisely, and we firmly believe that improving our mass transit infrastructure would be a smart and much needed investment in the prosperity of our community.
    • The development of mass transit options in a community positively impacts energy consumption, the environment and public health (through decreased traffic crashes and vehicle pollution as well as increased physical activity).
    • Mass transit makes economic sense. It is a wise investment in our community’s prosperity – creating jobs and spurring growth and opportunity.
    • Every day, mass transit gives members of our community an affordable, convenient and safe transportation choice.
    • Mass transit gives many individuals who would otherwise be unable to travel around our city the access they need to be independent and self-sufficient.
    • Mass transit will provide this community with renewed freedom and mobility.
