Gottheimer slams New York moving forward with congestion tax

NEW JERSEY — U.S. Congressman Josh Gottheimer (NJ-05) Sunday released the following statement after New York’s Congestion Tax went into effect:

“New York is barreling ahead with their Congestion Tax scheme without any concrete plan to mitigate the cancer-causing smog the Congestion Tax will force Jersey children and families to breathe in every day. It’s insane to me that at a time when hardworking families are struggling with higher costs, the MTA is literally celebrating whacking New Jersey and New York families with a new, regressive Congestion Tax.”
