Directs the MTA to establish a reduced or free fare program for disabled veterans.

New York Assembly Bill A03511 amends the public authorities law to mandate the Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA) to implement a reduced or free fare program for disabled veterans. Specifically, it requires a half fare rate for veterans rated thirty percent or more disabled by the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs and a no fare program for those rated one hundred percent disabled. The bill defines "veteran" as a member of the U.S. armed forces who served honorably and was honorably discharged or released under conditions other than dishonorable. The act takes effect immediately.
