Residents and merchants from Manhattan, including the Lower East Side, along with others from New Jersey and Staten Island, are suing the Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA) to stop New York City's congestion pricing plan. They claim the MTA did not conduct a required environmental impact study under NEPA. The lawsuit aims to prevent the implementation of a $15 toll. Concurrently, New York Attorney General Letitia James has announced that ride-share drivers in the city can apply for settlement funds from a historic lawsuit. Additionally, the city's Fair Fares NYC program, which offers a 50% discount on subway and bus fares for eligible New Yorkers, has seen over 316,726 people enroll.
