Governor Hochul has no spine and if she gets her way and postpones congestion pricing she's lost her next election. I am apoplectic right now.

I emailed my state senator and kindly said that she can't vote against congestion pricing and needs to come out with a strongly worded statement of support for it to be implemented ASAP.

Anyone that is against it has lost my vote. And the governor has just shot herself in the face with this decision. She's lost the vote of NYC and with that her chance of re-election is over. I hope she enjoys the few years she has left.
