Wednesday's Headlines: Duffy on Day 100 Edition - Streetsblog New York City
Briefly

Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy's arguments against congestion pricing in New York City are challenged by Curt Menefee, the host of 'Fox NFL Sunday.' While Duffy argues that congestion pricing restricts freedom for drivers, Menefee counters that most New Yorkers rely on mass transit. The conversation highlights contrasting views on congestion pricing as a necessary measure to address traffic issues versus a financial burden on drivers. Menefee's rebuttals emphasize the reality of public transit usage among city residents and question Duffy's claims regarding the pricing initiative's purpose.
Duffy argued, 'People are being priced out of driving into New York City. I like freedom. Let me drive my car in if I want.'
Menefee stated, 'The majority of New Yorkers use public transportation. You can argue that people from New Jersey or Connecticut have to pay, but those who live in the city have a system for going below 60th Street.'
