Today, leaders from more than 40 organizations and local governments sent an open letter urging @NJTRANSIT to pause the proposal to raise fares by 15 percent in light of the new Corporate Transit Fee proposed by @GovMurphy.

A $45 million program was rolled out on Wednesday to help NJ school districts replace diesel-powered buses with electric models. About 200 have been ordered so far, a small portion of the estimated 15,000 buses that run in NJ every school day. ow.ly/oQ6G50OOJOf

As an environmental reporter in NJ, I spent years looking at air quality data, seeing it spike on high ozone days rarely getting close to 150.
I never thought I would ever see the air quality index scores I have seen today.
Absolutely stunning in the worst possible way.

Thank you @NOAA for keeping Hudson Canyon in Sanctuary inventory. Designating it a National Marine Sanctuary would provide a wide range of benefits for NY & NJ residents & the diversity of wildlife living off our shores, like sharks, whales, birds & more. wcs.org/get-involved/hudson-…

.@EnvironmentNJ endorses @PhilMurphyNJ for re-election, along with a small, select group of legislative candidates -- seems more meaningful when a group doesn't just endorse everybody -- and Mayor @StevenFulop.
