Bicycle Austin forum

This forum’s roots date back to the very first bike email list in Austin, starting in 1994, and it played a part in the getting the segregated bike lanes you see all over town.  Be a part of history and make a post!

Congress punishes commuters in 2014

"The amount workers can stash away pre-tax for transit costs is being cut nearly in half to $130 a month starting in January from a current monthly limit of $245. Car commuters, meanwhile, are getting an even bigger tax break. The monthly parking benefit has been raised slightly to $250 from $245. For a commuter in the 25% tax bracket, the maximum tax break is shrinking to $390 a year from $735. Meanwhile, for people who drive to work, the maximum tax break is increasing slightly to $750 a year."

And we wonder why things are so f'd up.
