Congestion pricing plan a money grab
Democrat New Jersey Gov. Phil Murphy and a wide coalition of bipartisan federal lawmakers.
"Today’s decision by the U.S. Department of Transportation to allow New York’s congestion pricing plan to move forward is unfair and ill-advised," Murphy said in a statement. "The Administration’s decision to move forward without a true environmental impact study undercuts some of the Administration’s own long-term goals, including the Justice40 initiative."
"Everyone in the region deserves access to more reliable mass transit, but placing an unjustified financial burden on the backs of hardworking New Jersey commuters is wrong," the New Jersey governor added. "Simply put, it is a money grab."
