NJ argues NYC congestion pricing suit 'ripe for decision' as Hochul revives contentious commuter toll
Briefly

Attorney Randy Mastro emphasized that the congestion pricing plan continues to be flawed, arguing that it was implemented without a comprehensive environmental review. He stated, “The MTA's congestion pricing scheme remains as flawed today as it has been all along. We sued to block this scheme from going forward, and we now look forward to the court ruling in our case.” This highlights legal concerns over the proposed toll and environmental impact.
Governor Phil Murphy expressed his opposition to the congestion pricing proposal by stating, “I have consistently expressed openness to a form of congestion pricing that meaningfully protects the environment and does not put unfair burdens upon hardworking New Jersey commuters. Today's plan woefully fails that test.” His comments reflect a broader reluctance from New Jersey officials concerning the plan's fairness and environmental considerations.
