READ ME: Letter Sign- On to Stop Congestion Pricing in New York City

Councilwoman Marmorato signed onto a letter spearheaded by Staten Island Rep. Malliotakis. This letter was addressed to President Trump to end the recently enacted Congestion Pricing that is financially affecting the pockets of many New Yorkers. This written call for change, is a bi-partisan effort from elected officials from New York City at federal, state, and city levels.

The Councilwoman will continue to fight against unfair tolls that hurt our working class community members.
