More than 60 supporters of Riders Against Gender Exclusion added their names to the SEPTA Rider’s Bill of Rights, which RAGE presented to the transit agency at its public meeting Dec. 15. In the document, RAGE outlined the protections to which all SEPTA riders are entitled, marking the first time a formal declaration is believed to have been drafted. RAGE has been calling on SEPTA to remove its gender markers from its transpasses, maintaining the passes are discriminatory against transgender and gender-variant individuals. SEPTA has said it cannot consider such a change until a new fare system is in place. Photo: Scott Drake
