New Jersey Governor Phil Murphy has issued a statement regarding recent developments in congestion pricing. He expressed strong opposition to the U.S. Department of Transportation's actions, emphasizing New Jersey's commitment to challenging the tolling plan.
Governor Murphy stated, “Despite today’s action by the U.S. Department of Transportation, New Jersey’s fight against congestion pricing will continue. We stand resolutely against a tolling scheme that will unfairly burden our commuters.” He criticized both New York and Washington for not involving New Jersey in discussions about the plan from its inception.
The governor reaffirmed his determination to contest what he describes as an "unfair and unpopular plan" through legal channels.
