A fuming Gov. Kathy Hochul slammed President Trump’s gambit to kill congestion pricing on Wednesday as a direct federal “attack on New York sovereignty” by a self-proclaimed “king.”
The remarks came in response to Trump’s U.S. Department of Transportation, directed by Transportation Secretary San Duffy, moving on Feb. 19 to end the Manhattan toll program, which aims to reduce traffic congestion and improve transit efficiency in the city, just six weeks after the program started.
