With the recent news about congestion pricing, it’s essential to remember that the *VAST MAJORITY* of people DO NOT DRIVE into downtown Manhattan. They take transit. So if NJ *really* wanted to stick it to NY, they’d fully fund NJ Transit.

Want to stick it to NYC’s congestion pricing? Fully fund NJ Transit.

Congestion pricing is good for everyone — and opposing it is a waste of time. Transportation advocates must have one goal: fully funding NJ Transit

Fare hikes won't solve NJ Transit's structural problem, which is that right now, facing a deficit THIS YEAR, its funding levels are at the whims of lawmakers. Forcing riders to pay more w/o additional state investment = more expensive, worse service = transit death spiral!

There is no world in which a transit agency can identify $600m in cuts without it resulting in worse service for riders. For context, $600m = about 1/5 of NJ Transit's annual budget. Imagine 20% fewer trains and buses.

NJ Transit consulting team is looking to transform the agency. And cut $600M

The state is paying North Highland $6.7 million to conduct the study, which the company launched in January.

Pennsylvanians deserve clean, safe, cost-effective ways to travel. That’s why my budget will call for the first increase in the state share of public transit funding in over a decade — including a significant investment in @SEPTA . It's a commonsense way to support our

This is a good policy and the decent thing to do. It's also only a small part of the bigger problem--NJ Transit needs more funding. It's time for lawmakers to enact the Corporate Transit Fee and end the penny-pinching that only hurts riders more.

My late December advice to you is to put a little cinnamon in your morning coffee or tea. Makes it extra cosy and festive. My second, unrelated piece of advice is to make sure your smoked paprika and cinnamon are clearly labeled and possibly even stored in separate cabinets.

This is genuinely the most fun public hearing I’ve ever been to. People are hooting, cracking jokes, applauding…I maintain that transit riders are some of the most entertaining people on earth.

NJ Transit said all comments will be considered before a decision is made on the 15% fare hike and the 3% fare hike in perpetuity. But the budget they voted to send to lawmakers today assumes it has already happened. We need #FairFaresforAll !

The myth that NJ won't see any benefits from congestion pricing is just that-- a myth. NJ commuters will see benefits from less traffic, less pollution, AND improvements to NYC's public transit--which most of us use when we go into the city!

Last night on Ask the Gov, Gov Murphy said there's no parallel for using the CBT to fund NJ Transit. Weird, because here's an entire list of elected officials from my latest op-ed who support the idea (including the majority of New Jersey residents!) #FundNJTransit

Incredible story by @Colleenallreds outlining yet another way NJ lawmakers are hamstringing their own initiatives. We are leaving millions of federal dollars on the table because lawmakers won't commit state dollars to match. #FundNJTransit

Murphy wants NJ Transit to switch to electric buses. But there's a speed bump ahead

The big challenge is finding the money to renovate aging bus garages so they can charge electric bus batteries.

The MTA board voted to move forward with its congestion pricing plan. But, opponents argue the higher tolls are unaffordable for many. “They should not be penalized because New Jersey has a crappy public transit system,” said board member John Samuelsen.

If companies like Amazon want to use and abuse public infrastructure, it's not unreasonable to ask them to pay for it too. @GovMurphy 's proposed Corporate Transit Fee is the most equitable way to fund NJ Transit. And NJT is a great way to avoid sitting in traffic for hours😁😁😁
