New Jersey will receive a portion of the revenue generated from Manhattan's congestion pricing plan, as confirmed by the MTA Chair. The plan has faced opposition, with concerns raised about the impact on commuters and the allocation of funds between NYC and NJ. Despite widespread opposition, the MTA is moving forward with the congestion tax, aiming to address traffic issues and financial challenges.
The Congestion Tax is widely opposed by vast majority of Nee Yorkers. However, local pols felt that caving to transit and bike bros was the better option. https://t.co/DKo1FK16PY
2/3s of NY state opposes congestion pricing. Just 33% of NYC voters support it. Only 34% of Dems support it. Thats some scarlet letter the @mta is hanging on the necks of the Gov and legislature. https://t.co/8H8O59YEez
The Congestion Tax proves that the @MTA couldn’t care about less traffic, helping the environment, or supporting families. They will do anything to cover their historic mismanagement — and the billions of dollars they waste every year. https://t.co/sNGkeKCJmV
Hey @NYCMayor the City of New York should be getting 100% of the revenue from congestion taxation in the event that it is implemented. The streets in the proposed taxation zone are assets of the City of New York; not the MTA, an unelected body. Why you allow the state… https://t.co/Ai37lICQDd

The @MTA’s Congestion Tax cash grab will whack commuters with a $4,000 a year new tax. NJ won’t sit back while NYC treats our hardworking families like their piggy bank. https://t.co/IYS2quwYAf
