An Open Letter

To: Gov. Hochul, Sen. Hoylman-Sigal, Assembly Member Simone

From: A verified voter in New York, NY

October 25

I support Governor Hochul's pause on Congestion Pricing and I oppose the current plan. I have lived in Hell's Kitchen for over 30 years and it is unfair for residents to not get a discount on the toll. Residents obviously cannot avoid the congestion zone, and the income cap for relief from the toll is far too low to be reasonable. Any congestion pricing plan should include exemptions for residents of the zone. Otherwise it's basically a tax to keep poor residents off the roads while rich residents drive freely.
