Summary
New York’s congestion pricing tolls are staying on, even as Trump tries to kill the program.
They were federally approved under the Biden administration and launched on January 5, charging most drivers $9 to enter Manhattan below 60th Street.
Gov. Kathy Hochul condemns the Trump administration’s move to revoke approval, calling it an attack on the city.
The MTA immediately sued the U.S. Department of Transportation, insisting the government can’t unilaterally end an active program.
By refusing to comply, the MTA keeps tolls running while legal battles continue.
aren’t republicans all for small government, states rights?
why arent they protesting this incursion right now?
Oh, right. they stand for nothing.
They seem to generally agree on hurting vulnerable people.
When you stand for nothing, you fall for everything.
