Trump reportedly considering halting New York’s hard-won congestion pricing Three-week-old program to curb vehicle emissions received approval from Biden administration, which Trump may pull.
Donald Trump’s administration is reportedly considering putting a stop to New York City’s three-week-old congestion pricing program, which aims to curb emissions from auto vehicles.
Trump’s transportation department is weighing the possibility of pulling that authorization, the New York Times reported, which would probably incite a legal battle between state and federal officials and could put a stop to the program.
New Jersey’s Democratic governor called on Trump on Monday to re-examine the congestion pricing program after his state lost a legal attempt to block it.
It went into effect earlier this month following an array of legal challenges, as well as an 11th-hour suspension by the New York governor, Kathy Hochul, which she later reversed.
