Leon Williams from East Orange is waiting for a NJ Transit train to take him to his ailing mother, and no fare hike is going to stop him.

"I gotta go see my mom. If I got money in my pocket, I gotta pay what I got to," said Williams. "My mom is my heart; she's the one who raised me, so I gotta go see her."

But he, like everyone else riding NJ Transit, has no choice but to pay the 15% higher fares that went into effect Monday.

Commuters, don't pay your fares. Don't show your phones, tickets or give money. Just get on the train or bus. Are they going to arrest a couple of thousand riders?

NJ complains about MTA congestion pricing but hikes its own fares... 🤣🤣
