Administrative VP Kemp to MTA Board: Bus Operators Demand Bulletproof Partitions

JUNE 25, 2026—This morning at the MTA Board meeting, TWU Local 100 Administrative Vice President Alexander Kemp demanded stronger protections for bus operators.

With violent attacks on buses increasing, the union is demanding that all 300 newly ordered buses come equipped with full bulletproof partitions to protect our members.
