Congestion pricing: Why did Gov. Hochul hit the brakes?
Manage episode 422378505 series 2406578
Almost 50 years in the making, congestion pricing in New York City was dealt a shocking blow this week when Gov. Kathy Hochul “indefinitely” paused the plan to toll people driving into Midtown and lower Manhattan. Hochul’s decision — just weeks before the plan was going into effect — has New Yorkers scratching their heads as to what led to her decision. Was it just policy or was politics behind the governor’s move? NY1 investigative reporter Courtney Gross, political reporter Bobby Cuza and political director Bob Hardt discuss the possible reasons for Hochul’s last-minute postponement.
After that, it’s Adams v. Adams yet again. Mayor Eric Adams and City Council Speaker Adrienne Adams are at odds, this time over a piece of legislation that would give local lawmakers confirmation powers over 21 mayoral appointees. The “Off Topic” team discusses the latest City Hall power struggle.
