Hochul Faces Pressure to Revive Congestion Pricing Amid Trump Concerns

Governor Kathy Hochul faces pressure to reactivate New York City's paused congestion pricing program before Donald Trump, who opposes it, takes office for a second term. The program, crucial for funding MTA transit repairs, was halted due to economic concerns and political strategy. Experts argue that once implemented, it would be difficult for Trump to repeal, but Hochul must act quickly to secure federal approval before the new administration potentially obstructs the process.
