Murphy Says NYC Congestion Pricing Can’t Burden New Jersey Taxpayers
- Governor said he is confident American Dream mall will succeed
- Megamall in north Jersey has been beset with financial issues
New York City’s congestion pricing proposal can’t be “on the backs of New Jersey commuters,” Governor Phil Murphy said.
“Whether it’s how we’re taxed by our neighbors or this proposal for a congestion-pricing scheme that would be a huge burden on commuters, we can’t have it both ways,” Murphy said Thursday in an interview on Bloomberg Television’s “Balance of Power With David Westin.” “We still have great relations with our neighbors. We just want to make sure we’re standing up for our taxpayers and our commuters.”
