Starting congestion pricing is the easiest, most immediate action Governor Hochul can take to secure the future of our public transit system before Trump takes office. And yet she refuses to do so. Governor Kathy Hochul, there's no more time to waste. Start congestion pricing now!

Back in April all these deliveristas would’ve been parked on the sidewalk and it would’ve been unwalkable. But since Wegman’s put in this e-bike loading zone it’s so much clearer. It’s proof that adequate on-street micromobility infrastructure is a win for pedestrians too

“In the years ahead, NY’s Dem leaders will be called upon to protect mills of Americans & our basic freedoms. They’ll also have to have find a way to start solving problems in the nations largest city. Enacting congestion pricing is a good start.” Mara Gay nytimes.com/live/2024/11/0…

The housing crisis is worsening and New Yorkers can’t afford to wait. The City Council has a choice: meet the needs of today or stay stuck in the past. Say #YestoHousing! thenyhc.org/city-of-yes/

*NEW* from a US DOT spokesman on congestion pricing: “New York project sponsors notified FHWA of their updated plan to advance the project with a starting toll of $9, and FHWA is working expeditiously to finalize the needed steps to complete the agreement.”

Today — because you called and rallied and never stopped pushing — Governor Kathy Hochul is advancing congestion pricing. We are one step closer to cleaner air, safer streets, faster buses, accessible subways & a more resilient future. Today wouldn't have been possible without you.

.MTA's website officially says congestion pricing is "unpaused." I'll save the bigger celebration for January 5, 2025, but emojis seem appropriate! 🎉🥳🎇 new.mta.info

At today's MTA board vote to move forward with congestion pricing, C&D leader Jamie Torres-Springer lists projects that will resume now that CP is back. Notably: "All 23 of the Paused subway ADA upgrades can move forward"

Congress is working to pass a bill that would have a devastating, chilling effect on free speech and give the Trump administration power to strip tax-exempt status from nonprofits without due process or even a clear explanation (1/3).

Call your city council members and tell them: NO MORE PARKING MINIMUMS! NYC must build homes for people, not cars. Ending parking minimums is key to ending the housing crisis!

A reminder that the decision to require parking mandates will RAISE the cost of housing for New Yorkers. It is not in the interest of NYC affordability that council members claim it is. nytimes.com/interactive/20…

I know everyone is talking about Matt Gaetz but please don't miss this: Georgia fired every single person on its maternal mortality review committee. Why? They didn't like that reporters found out that the state's ban killed two women propublica.org/article/georgi…

Super speeders are terrorizing New Yorkers, racking up tickets and putting lives at risk. We can end this nightmare: the Stop Super Speeders bill would put speed limiters in the vehicles of repeat offenders. It's common-sense legislation that will save lives.

🚨 Stop the Cross Bronx Expansion 🚨 The Cross Bronx Expressway is one of the most harmful examples of racist urban planning in U.S. history — and now, NYS DOT wants to make it even worse.

Biking is not a crime & treating it like one while giving drivers who do almost all of the killing on our streets only civil tickets is not rational or fair & may violate our Constitutional Rights. End this practice now. sign Transportation Alternatives's petition here: act.transalt.org/a/repeal-the-c…
