Gov. Phil Murphy wrote a letter to the president saying that the surcharge on drivers entering Manhattan’s busiest area was a “disaster” for commuters and residents in his state.

After a federal lawsuit brought by his administration failed to stop New York’s congestion pricing plan, New Jersey Gov. Phil Murphy is appealing to another power: President Trump.

New Jersey Governor Phil Murphy on Monday asked President Donald Trump to reexamine the federal government's approval of New York City's first-in-the-nation congestion pricing program that began on Jan.

The plan, which launched on Jan. 5, newly charges passenger vehicles $9 to access Manhattan below 60th Street during peak hours.

New Jersey Gov. Phil Murphy appeals to the Trump administration to reconsider NYC's congestion pricing, arguing it burdens New Jersey commuters and families.
