RELEASE: Gottheimer Slams New York Moving Forward With Congestion Tax

NORTH JERSEY — Today, January 5, 2024, U.S. Congressman Josh Gottheimer (NJ-05) 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.”
