Thanks Gov. Hochul!
@govmurphy.bsky.social Please accept the evidence that congestion pricing is awesome policy for regular New Yorkers and New Jerseyans alike & unravel your alliance with Pres. Trump on this issue. @openplans.org @fundtransitnow.bsky.social @rpa.org @theclimatereality.bsky.social

Our streets are breathing! Traffic is down, local business is up. Congestion pricing continues to deliver. Thank you Governor Kathy Hochul for standing up and staying firm on what’s best for all New Yorkers!

This is what good policy looks like! Expand bus lanes and bus-mounted cameras for faster and safer trips and improvement in quality of life! @openplans.org @fundtransitnow.bsky.social @transalt.org @nycspeakeradams.bsky.social
