Opposition to New York’s coming congestion pricing continues to snowball — and rightly so.
The United Federation of Teachers and Staten Island Borough President Vito Fossella are suing to stop the scheme to raise MTA revenue by taxing drivers entering Midtown Manhattan south of 60th Street, and a real gorilla just joined in: the Municipal Labor Committee, a coalition of unions repping nearly 400,000 city government workers.
Also joining the suit is a bipartisan cadre of 18 lawmakers including state Sen. Jessica Scarcella-Spanton (D-SI), City Council Minority Leader Joe Borelli (R-SI) and US Rep. Nicole Malliotakis (R-NY).
