Statement by Ed Cox on President Trump Cancelling Hochul's Congestion Pricing

 NYGOP


NYGOP Chair Ed Cox released the following statement in response to the a report that President Trump will today announce the termination of the approval of Kathy Hochul's congestion pricing scheme:

 

"I commend President Trump for his decisive action in halting Governor Hochul's ill-conceived congestion pricing scheme. This plan was a cash-grab that would have unfairly taxed hardworking New Yorkers, already the most taxed people in the country.

 

"Governor Hochul's cancellation of the plan right before the 2024 election, following its reinstatement right after the election, was the worst kind of cynical politics. Kathy Hochul might have a blatant disregard for the financial burdens faced by New Yorkers - but President Trump does not."
