'Congestion pricing is dead:' NY officials respond to Trump | LiveNOW from FOX

In a fiery press conference at Grand Central Terminal, New York Gov. Kathy Hochul responded to the Trump's administration plan to kill New York City's new congestion pricing toll, saying, "I'm here to say New York hasn't labored under a king in over 250 years," and added, "we sure as hell are not gonna start now." The U.S. Department of Transportation is effectively killing NYC's congestion pricing program. The U.S. DOT rescinded a Nov. 21 agreement signed under the Value Pricing Pilot Program, effectively ending NYC's authority to impose the $9 toll on most drivers. Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy called the toll, impacting drivers in Manhattan's business district, a "slap in the face" to working class Americans and small business owners. NYC's congestion pricing program, launched in January, imposes a $9 toll on most drivers entering Manhattan below 60th Street. The landmark initiative was designed to reduce traffic congestion, improve air quality and raise funds for much-needed public transit upgrades, although critics have said it is just one more unfair cost to commuters to fund the MTA.
