Sec. Duffy: ‘If We Can’t Consider the Subway a Subway and Not a Homeless Shelter, We’re Going to Pull Your Money’

EXCERPT:

DUFFY: “The American people expect their subways to be places where they can come in and out of cities and do it safely. And by the way, wouldn't it be nice if it was clean?"
JONES: "Yes."
DUFFY: "So again, if they don't get on board to change their ways, we're pulling cash. And again, we shouldn't have to do that, you guys. They should go -- just good government would dictate that we have clean, safe subways. They should want that. They don't want you to drive your car. They want you to take a train. Well, if you want me to take a train, make the train safe, make it clean. But if you won't do that, we're going to pull money and give you the incentive to make that happen.”
