Great article about congestion pricing, which points out the single most important fact: it works! Yes, the details matter and the policy needs to be carefully crafted. But it must go forward! politi.co/3q9Xr0S via @politico

My former boss, Senator Daniel Patrick Moynihan, called the demolition of the original Penn Station, “the greatest civic crime in New York History.”
We’re righting that wrong with a new Penn Station — a world-class transit hub that puts commuters and communities first.
MTA CEO Lieber is exactly right -- transit is a fundamental public service. It needs to be funded that way. crainsnewyork.com/transporta… via @CrainsNewYork
This is a win-win for riders. If you don't ride too much, you just pay for the rides you use. But if you ride a lot, you automatically get the unlimited pass.

I’ve never stopped to wonder where the term Freeholder came from, or who it excluded. It’s past time to make our governance institutions reflect our values. Thanks @GovMurphy and President Holloway.
What an exciting chat w/@NYCSpeakerCoJo & @nicolegelinas on @WNYC's @heresthething w/@AlecBaldwin about the history of transit in NYC, why our system is deteriorating & how we can get to a better place through congestion pricing, better procurement & more bit.ly/2XCB88g – at Manhattan, NY
Thanks @GovMurphy and @SenBooker! @RPA will be releasing analysis soon to show how much is at risk. We need new tunnels under the river! #buildgateway!
Today, we traveled over the Sawtooth, Portal North Bridge & Secaucus Junction to tour the aging North River Tunnel, which carries 200,000 rail passengers daily between NJ & NYC. Funding the Gateway Project is critical. We need a new tunnel built ASAP. @SenBooker @SenatorMenendez
So excited to work on this -- an idea whose time has come! xitter.cf/NYCommTrust/status/985…
Excellent piece by @LizKrueger on what we need to solve congestion in the region's core: bit.ly/2EEUEmd via @crainsnewyork
You can't make this stuff up. Important to realize that #Gateway is not just fixing existing tunnels and adding new ones, but also repairing the line from Newark to NYC -- including the Portal Bridge. #trumpstunnel xitter.cf/RegionalPlan/status/97…

If you're delayed on @NJTRANSIT or @AmtrakNEC this morning while the Portal Bridge is stuck up, sign our petition and tell the Feds to Fund #Gateway now! change.org/p/president-trump…

Trainsin/out of NYPS is suspended between Newark Penn and New York Penn Station due to Amtrak’s Portal bridge being stuck in the open position. Midtown Direct trains are diverted to Hoboken. NJT tix is cross-honored with NJT bus, private carriers & Path at 33rd, Hoboken & Newark.

The Portal Bridge, the first part of the #Gateway project, is stuck open right now, delaying thousands of commuters and costing the economy millions each hour it's stuck. When will the Feds step up and fund Gateway? #TrumpsTunnel nj.com/news/index.ssf/2018/0…
Is there anyone outside the WH who doesn't think this is absolutely necessary: nyti.ms/2D5bvhm #trumpstunnel
Reading this on a delayed train. The president should check this out. #trumpstunnel xitter.cf/ScottRechler/status/97…
