TransitApp just jammed the phone lines of the governor of NYS with an in-app call to action to support congestion pricing. Neat! @streetsblognyc

I see news like this and I think "Cynthia Nixon could have been good as governor".

@futurebird @streetsblognyc seems like a poor idea. So low income people who cannot afford other modes of transport will have to pay more to get to and from their low paying jobs. Am I missing something?

@Robo

Low income people are much less likely to drive or own a car but especially in NYC.

@futurebird @streetsblognyc she gas lit by saying that congestion pricing hurts low income people when most people driving into the city are probably upper middle class people who dislike rubbing elbows on the subway.

@ddrhazy @streetsblognyc It’s total BS

@futurebird great response, but good grief, Hochul is a disappointment machine.

@emma @futurebird I try not to be too hard on her because being an evil vampire is kind of a tradition for New York governers. She's not very smooth about it, but none of them ever really were...
