Crain's Chicago Business ran an op-ed by Joseph DiJohn, director of the
Metropolitan Support Initiative in the College of Urban Planning and Public
Affairs, on the need for state legislation and cooperation among all
Chicago-region transportation agencies to avert major fare increases and
service cuts by the CTA.

The op-ed, headlined "Has doomsday finally arrived for Chicago Transit Authority?" can be read by
