Environmental Defense Fund Statement On New Jersey's Opposition to Congestion Pricing
“Both New Yorkers and New Jerseyans alike will benefit from projects funded by congestion pricing to speed up commutes, improve air quality and reduce costly traffic. Millions across the region share this common interest in cleaner air, less gridlock and better transit. While litigation won't deliver any of that for anyone, collaboration will. Now is the time for our elected leaders to craft a solution that offers a better, more affordable ride to work for everyone.”
- Andy Darrell, Senior Advisor, Environmental Defense Fund
