Maryland will provide free MARC train and Commuter Bus service to federal workers for the duration of the government shutdown, Maryland Gov. Wes Moore has announced.

Anyone with a federal ID badge can ride for free by showing their badge to the operator.

The governor made the announcement Friday while at a resource fair in Howard County, where state and local agencies were administering resources for federal workers

“This is what Maryland does in times of crisis: We band together and we help each other out,” Gov. Moore said in a statement. “But while Maryland is mobilizing to ease the shutdown’s burden on our people, let’s be clear, no state can fill the gap created by the federal government.”
