A depressing number of American’s entire rubric for politics and policy is “does this make it cheap and convenient for me to drive?” They don’t care if cities are demolished, autocrats enriched, air is polluted, oceans boil or millions are injured and die in crashes every year.

The MTA board has a fiduciary responsibility to the MTA not to political calculations. The board should vote down any pause to Congestion Pricing and implement the program as is. I'll be making that clear in my testimony at tomorrow’s board meeting. nyc.streetsblog.org/2024/06/25/mta…

My testimony at today’s MTA board meeting ⬇️ Congestion pricing will make our air cleaner, streets safer, and transit more accessible. To delay the program is to sacrifice these essential public health and safety benefits and put at risk transformative projects like the IBX.

As a longtime advocate for congestion pricing and a Congressional Representative for the CBD, I find Governor Kathy Hochul's 'indefinite pause' of congestion pricing misguided, harmful, and likely unlawful. Watch my testimony before the MTA's Board Meeting today:

On the chopping block now: * Phase 2 of 2nd Av Subway * 23 subway station accessibility upgrades * New trains, buses & signals Congestion pricing is the only viable way to fund the MTA's capital budget while relieving horrible congestion in the zone. Time to unpause the pause.

If Governor Hochul’s justification for abandoning congestion pricing was to mitigate a political “liability”, then this might go down as one of the biggest political missteps in modern political history.

100,000 jobs gone. $16.5 billion in subway upgrades vanished. Governor Kathy Hochul’s cancellation of congestion pricing is an unmitigated disaster. There’s no political upside for her—only grave consequences for the New Yorkers she was elected to serve.

“I’m sorry if we build a little bit and it has an impact on someone’s perfect neighborhood because people aren’t even able to survive right now. So I guess my sympathies are quite low.” - Montana State Senator Daniel Zolnikov (R) x.com/WNNProHousing/…

As Mayor, I’ll pick up the slow roll and push forward with dedicated MTA bus lanes, transit signal priority, and all-door boarding. And I'll focus on improving capital projects management and reforming procurement, so we can move transit projects forward on time and on budget.
