No she did not. The silent majority oppose this. Poll after poll showed that most NYC residents didn't support this. Traffic and pollution would've increased in the outer boroughs and in some communities such as Battery Park City and the Lower East Side according to the MTA. Many small businesses would've had to increase costs and would've lost some business. This was nothing more than a cash grab for a transit agency that is poorly managed and the Governor made the right decision
Anyone worrking on and taking public transportation to Manhattan should have the brains to realize the MTA is the most wasteful transportation agency in the world. Audit the MTA and use the savings to repair the subway.
If only 3% are traveling in vehicles how does this makes sense ? New York is the only city in the world that doesn’t support in/out turnstiles for subway and train riders . Germany relies on massive fines for being on public transportation w/out a valid ticket.
According to Wikipedia, the top 3% of households in the United States have an annual gross income of at least $200,000. Alternately buy an unlimited Metro 🚇 pass for a $1600 yearly From NJ, $2200 yearly for NJ Transit to NYC unlimited... We're talking an extra $1k to $2k for people with $200k minimum income These weirdos.... Pay it and shut it.
I wanna know who tugged her leash. She's been advocating and supporting this project for nigh on 20 years, and just weeks before it goes live, she pulls the plug???
Andrew and this Lady are out of touch for real, stop taxing people that work so hard and stop spending our money to illegals and start jailing the criminals period.
Manhattan small businesses will die if congestion pricing executes. These politicians don’t know what they are doing but spending tax payers money like no tomorrow.
After endless conferences and media coverage. They now decide to put it on hold… is it a joke? They even installed some cameras at multiple locations …
MTA is total corrupt. Spending money like there is no tomorrow. Billing work or projects that are 10x what the market price would be. All the money going into friendly contractors and friend.
cash grabs remember the lost millions in merchendice and after an aproved fare hike the merchendice appered and that was part of the excuse for the fair hike
A bunch of B.S. if it is designed to reduce traffic ,hiw than will thise few cars generate 15 Billion dollars. They need the traffic to increase the revenue so the goal is to raise money not decrease traffic. .duhhhhhh
Fare beaters occurs becouse the fares are to high from past MtA cash grabs remember the lost millions in merchendice and after an aproved fare hike the merchendice appered and that was part of the excuse for the fair hike
She complained about the amount of time it took to get through the EPA, but assuredly the solution is more government and taxes if you were to ask her.
Most people who drive into Manhattan are not wealthy. The middle class is not the wealthy. The notion that only rich people drive is absurd. I have relatives and neighbors who live in the CBD that drive and they are not wealthy. Many small business owners, police, firefighters, city workers who use their personal vehicle aren't rich people. Comments like yours are just ridiculous.
@@Atrail_Mckinley4786 The original poster is arguing that congestion pricing is just a “socialist” means of tax revenue and would not solve anything, when in reality it would benefit the environment and the MTA by reducing amount of cars on the road and relieving buses and congestion.

they need to clean house at the MTA!!!
So they created more congestion with adding more bike lanes and then complain about it.
This woman is irritating. She was the one that rudely told NJ to get over it.
👇The main problem with all new government tax/fee👇
They NEVER go away &
They ALWAYS go up 🤷♀️
Exactly!!! It'll never be enough to fill the black hole that is the MTA
It's hard to see improvement in roads, bridges, etc from taxes/fees
There are many vocal opposers who represent a small percentage of people coming to work in Manhattan. The governor miscalculated her move on this.

Why would anyone support 15 dollars a day?
@@TimmyG212 Any real working folks who rely on reliable public transportation to get to work in Manhattan.

Yeah I remember her saying “well New Jersey needs to get over…….ahahahahahahahaah….hey Katheryn get over it😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
yes she was very arrogant!!
The problem with doing away with congestion pricing is the money spent on installing toll readers .what a waste!!!
all the ghost cars that can't tolled
Audit the MTA.. no one told them to commit buying equipment without having the funds..
They are audited constantly. Please type in the search bar before you type in the commnets
She should be fired. All I hear is mismanagement. Poor mgt
cut money migrants hotel,free debit card. mta need audit .more traffic in the bronx and staten island
They so mad CNBC had to cover this. The haters of the people just can't take it.
These anchors are insufferable. It's so obvious that congestion pricing affects hem personally and they're mad about it.
$15 x 200 days is $3k yearly driving tax for high income NYC workers...
Doesn't seem unaffordable.
According to Wikipedia, the top 3% of households in the United States have an annual gross income of at least $200,000.

No. The gap from fare evasion and capital funding is two different issues
GREAT point by Becky about the turnstile jumping -- its out of control. Zero enforcement!
So YOU pay the 15 bux every day Lady!
Do these people get that consumer pricing will raise you can’t bring a power saw on the train , business will be bankrupt
How many people need to bring a power saw into Manhattan daily?
My advice get the hell out of new york!!!!!!!!!!
Let It Go Bankruptcy And Let Private Company Into It. Sincerely❤️❤️❤️, KNT.

Just announce bankruptcy
After endless conferences and media coverage. They now decide to put it on hold… is it a joke? They even installed some cameras at multiple locations …
Why doesn't the city just spend less? They tax everyone for breathing and then waste all of the revenue on BS.
I don’t know but that guest speak just does not convince me of anything. She just repeats a mantra.
Get the SSN of fare evaders take $300 from their returns
Have you seen them? They're not paying taxes lmao
or cut their benefits
@@fhowlandhow do you know they're not paying their taxes? I know people who don't pay yet have great paying jobs and pay their taxes on time
@@TimmyG212 I see the types of people who jump the turnstiles. That’s how.
Why would any new yorker who drives be mad at this? Thank you for not taking 75 dollars a week from my check
5:55 so gov workers are exempt?? 😂
Otherwise its the government paying the government 😂 make sense?
@@mattylite7 so all other workers have to pay it out their pocket but gov employees like her get a free pass?
lieber makes 400k go figure
He has a fat paycheck he doesn’t deserve
This isn't even a question in London. Just get it done, NYC.
3 rich out of touch smucks..
They should just ban all the cars from the city center.
god bless the governor
How about a tax for everyone who honks in the city! It's out of control!
Or just ban private automobiles altogether in the city. No congestion charges needed!
MTA is total corrupt. Spending money like there is no tomorrow. Billing work or projects that are 10x what the market price would be. All the money going into friendly contractors and friend.
To all free lunch lovers … you are paying taxes, tolls, and student loans right after elections
Lies lies lies she pushing this hard becouse it will benafit. Her finacially in the long run
Who's the genius at 4:45?

Congestion pricing is good this lady is bad for not doing it
Kathyhyn is right
She is not

? Thrill with less business?

have you heard of public transit? of course not, you don't live in new york.
@@india-curry 🤣
@@QuiLe-qw5jb What a foolish answer coming from a pair of bollocks.

Congestion Pricing FTW! Suprised Squawk Box doesn't think of alternatives, like other (tech) solutions
Who jumps tge turnstiles and who bum rushes the buses???---we just ""wonder "" who are those youts who do that????---lol
