THE Commission on Human Rights (CHR) welcomes Senate Bill (SB) 2727 or the Magna Carta of Commuters, as it seeks to uphold the rights of commuters by providing inclusive, affordable, safe and accessible public transportation for all.

Introduced by Sen. Jinggoy Ejercito Estrada, this bill identifies the rights of commuters in the country, specifically the accessibility to convenient and overall better public transport for all, including persons with disabilities and those with impaired movement. It ensures safe bicycle lanes, sidewalks, intersections and roads without obstruction for public use.
