@RepJerryNadler @MTA Thank you for your leadership Congressman Nadler!!

[Kate Slevin @SlevinKate]

@DavidZipper @axios We don't give up easily, you know! There is indeed lots of support for congestion pricing.

[Regional Plan @RegionalPlan]

.@GovKathyHochul said she paused #CongestionPricing because of lingering pandemic effects — "but investing in transit ... is exactly what our region needs to continue to recover."

Good news: public transit funding is on the rise in NY state, in part because of future #CongestionPricing revenue and the 2021 IIJA, @regionalplan analysis found. Read the full findings:

RPA is at City Hall this morning to support #CityOfYes for Housing Opportunity!

@EricMcClureBK Hahah!! Cause we are all aging together!!

[Kate Slevin @SlevinKate]

The MTA just approved congestion pricing for NYC! It will improve transit, reduce traffic, clean the air and make streets safer. I have been working on this for the past 20 years with some amazing colleagues — this feels like a real milestone!

Congestion pricing's delay is officially stopping important work on capital projects - per the MTA Capital Committee presentation today.

We've been raising this alarm for 2+ years - the COVId-19 delays + CP delays are severely damaging to the MTA's ability to fix the system.

[Regional Plan @RegionalPlan]

NYC could lose much needed transit improvements if #congestionpricing isn't implemented in a timely manner.

RPA and @FundTransitNow released maps of at-risk projects across the boroughs. See maps for all boroughs:

@NJTRANSIT_ME I’m stuck on a ME train trying to get home to my sick son. The Governor should be funding the transit system not making riders pay more for unreliable service.

[Kate Slevin @SlevinKate]

As a union household, this one hurts! We need congestion pricing so teachers and students can get to school on time. So disappointing @UFT

[UFT @UFT]

Today, our union, along with teachers who work at schools in Manhattan and the Bronx as well as Staten Island Borough President @SIBPVito, filed a federal lawsuit asking the court to halt the implementation of congestion pricing in Manhattan.

@RegionalPlan’s billboard in Trenton says it all. Without dedicated transit funding, NJT service will be cut and fares raised, and current transit service is already bad! #fundNjtransit

[Kate Slevin @SlevinKate]

Exciting!

[NYLCV @nylcv]

Incredible footage! @SouthForkWind's 1st turbine is up & running & providing clean power to NY! NYLCV Pres @JulieTighe17 along w/ state leaders joined the project's developers @OrstedUS & @EversourceCorp for an up-close look at the what is the start of a new era of clean energy!

[Governor Kathy Hochul @GovKathyHochul]

Congestion pricing isn't just going to reduce gridlock and ensure our children can breathe cleaner air.

It's going to help us invest in century-old public transit system so it's ready to serve New Yorkers for the next century to come.

[Kate Slevin @SlevinKate]

@PlanningAutumn Maybe not surprising but Mexico City!

[EDF @EnvDefenseFund]

Congestion pricing is more than just a traffic reduction program. It’s everyone’s #RouteForward to more accessible transportation, safer streets for a city on the move, and cleaner air from less traffic pollution.
