60% of those with an income <$50k support congestion pricing in NYC and support goes down as income rises. Can we dispose of the "it's not progressive" canard now?https://twitter.com/Komanoff/status/1084810460279463937 …

is congestion pricing that different from "put tolls all bridges into Manhattan and make them time variable"

about 1 million cars enter or exit Manhattan via free bridges; tolled ones are 700,000 [including 300,000 from the George Washington Bridge, most of which is non-Manhattan traffic] http://www.nyc.gov/html/dot/downloads/pdf/nyc-bridge-traffic-report-2015.pdf …

How does congestion pricing become real? Who gets to enact it-the city or the state? Can you tell I really want congestion pricing?
-
The action is at the state level in New York. It's moving through the state legislature.
