Duffy’s letter essentially says that New York City streets are highways for drivers just passing through, everyone else be damned.

Reposted from StreetsPAC

We won't link to the ridiculously and typically inaccurate NY Post account, but here's the letter that USDOT sent to Governor Hochul rescinding approval of congestion pricing. The Governor and @newyorkstateag1.bsky.social need to fight this tooth and nail. ops.fhwa.dot.gov/memorandum/V...

Wouldn’t that also describe the NJ turnpike?

Or as we like to call it, "the Moses rule"

As always, call Kathy Hochul and tell her to stand up for congestion pricing… among other things.

If you live in New Jersey, call Governor Murphy and yell at him for siding with Trump and screwing his constituents.

Phil Murphy’s office:

609-292-6000

Call and tell him congrats for being on the side of fascists and climate change.

What did he do?

windles.bsky.social•4 days ago

wow, they say they have a 90 minute delay in answering the phone and to call back later. I've never gotten that before from her office.

Yes and seems incorrect to me. NYCs local roads weren’t built with federal highway funding

brooklynspoke.bsky.social•4 days ago

There will certainly be lawsuits.

I'm confident NY/MTA can win this, and even with Hochul's insanely awful political instincts I don't think she's dumb enough to try to just kill it again now, but definitely nervous someone capitulates on pausing it while the lawsuits play out.

Time for a 10,000% state or local tax on any and all paid parking in lower Manhattan during congestion pricing hours.

I've tried to go down the rabbit hole to find what streets in manhattan have received federal funding and are part of the highway network. This was as close as i could get

He thinks he's a King. And Hochul should understand, narcissist are vengeful. She considered terminating Adams, so he is responding. Listen.. don't lay down to this narcissist.. fight him in court.
