In January, congestion pricing went into effect in New York City. The policy's implementation took decades; along the way, multiple moments suggested that it wouldn't happen at all. Now, drivers entering Manhattan south of 60th Street during peak hours are required to pay a toll. Meanwhile, other cities like San Francisco are considering a similar initiative. But Trump opposes New York's plan. Governor Hochul and state policy leaders encountered a political quagmire pushing the plan through. And its future is only certain up until around next fall, when legal proceedings are expected to come to a resolution. So, is congestion pricing making a worthwhile difference? How do New Yorkers — and those traveling into Manhattan — feel about it? Guests: Eric A. Goldstein, Senior Attorney, Natural Resources Defense Council Sarah M.

The Supreme Court made huge waves in the ongoing debate surrounding the rights of illegal immigrants in the United States when it temporarily blocked Trump's use of the Alien Enemies Act, which calls for the removal of identified gang members (from confirmed terrorist organizations), following the filing of an emergency application by the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU). The order notes, “The Government is directed not to remove any member of the putative class of detainees from the United States until further order of this Court.” Of course, it has left many people divided, as it surrounds controversial members of the Venezuelan Tren da Aragua gang, as well as the Salvadoran MS-13 gang and several Mexican cartels. I will ask Michael A. Letts, the Founder, President, and CEO of InVest USA (a national grassroots non-profit organization that is helping hundreds of communities provide thousands of bulletproof vests for their police forces all across the U.S.), his thoughts about the Supreme Court intervening in the enforcement of the Alien Enemies Act.New York Gov. Kathy Hochul has instituted what she and her political cohorts call a “congestion pricing program,” which was approved by the Biden administration on Joe's way out of the White House. Hochul and company sought approval from Biden and his people because the program is a toll on roads built and maintained with federal dollars, which is a violation of federal law. The Trump administration reviewed the program, canceled the approval granted by Biden, and issued a deadline to end the collection of tolls. Hochul and other New York officials have, so far, ignored the Trump administration, but now faces an escalation as Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy has issued warnings that federal funding for construction projects in New York City will be cut off if the illegal toll isn't ended. I discuss the issue with Jay Beeber, Executive Director of Policy at the National Motorists Association, an organization dedicated to protecting American drivers against the tyranny of the anti-car movement. I was joined by Ron Edwards, host of The Ron Edwards American Experience. We discussed the arrest of former Dona Ana County Magistrate Judge Jose “Joel” Cano and his wife, Nancy, for tampering with evidence that was part of a probe by Homeland Security Investigations into their association with 23-year-old Cristhian Ortega-Lopez, who authorities say is linked to Tren de Aragua; also, the arrest of Milwaukee County, Wisconsin, Judge Hannah Dugan for intentionally misdirected federal agents away from a subject to be arrested in her courthouse, Eduardo Flores Ruiz, allowing the subject — an illegal alien — to evade arrest. We also discussed North Dakota Republican Governor Kelly Armstrong vetoing a bill that would have required school districts to keep books determined to be “sexually explicit” out of the reach of students.Become a supporter of Tapp into the Truth: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/tapp-into-the-truth--556114/supportInVest USATruth, Lies and Control: Finding Hope in an Upside-Down WorldNational Motorist Association Ron EdwardsIf you love high-quality jerky, you need to check out Jerky Snob.

with @mostrovs @skominers @rhhackettWelcome to web3 with a16z. I'm your host Robert Hackett, and today we're talking about congestion pricing — an area of mechanism design that's aimed at alleviating something everyone hates: traffic.Now you may have heard this term recently since New York adopted its own version of congestion pricing at the beginning of the year. This is the first program of its kind in the U.S. — and it's got supporters and detractors. We'll talk about that, and we're also going to talk about much more. In the first part of today's episode we'll trace the history of the economic ideas that got us here. In the middle, we'll dig deeper into the details of putting congestion pricing into practice, plus technological alternatives. And in the final part, we'll explore parallels to — and implications for — crypto networks.Our guests are Michael Ostrovsky, a Stanford Economics Professor who specializes in this area and who has done research on congestion pricing in New York. We're also joined by a16z crypto Research Partner Scott Kominers, who is a Professor of Business Administration at Harvard Business School where he teaches market design and entrepreneurship.Resources:Michael Ostrovsky's paper on congestion pricing in New York City (from before the launch, foreseeing its issues): https://web.stanford.edu/~ost/papers/nyc.pdfMichael Ostrovsky's thread that went viral on X shortly after the debut of congestion pricing in New York, discussing the post-launch evidence, his team's data collection efforts, and the link between observed data and predictions in the above paper: https://x.com/mostrovs/status/1876798157595476420Two of Ostrovsky's earlier theoretical papers on the topic: (1) https://web.stanford.edu/~ost/papers/complementarity.pdf, (2) https://web.stanford.edu/~ost/papers/sdc.pdfEconomist William Vickrey's influential paper on congestion pricing: Vickrey, W.

Public streets play a big role in our day-to-day lives.  And if you've visited any large metropolitan city, you've seen just how much traffic can fill up roadways. New York City became the first city in America to implement congestion pricing, a program aimed at generating revenue and making streets less crowded. But the initiative hasn't been immune to opposition, including from the Trump administration, which has ordered the city to end the program. Janno Lieber is the chair and CEO of the Metropolitan Transit Authority. He joins WITHpod to discuss the effects of congestion pricing in NYC, legal fights ahead and more.

Can you believe this is our second emergency episode about congestion pricing? This time, we're responding to the Trump administration's attack on the program, which has been in effect since January, delivering exactly the results that policymakers had hoped for. Despite those early signs of success, on Wednesday, February 19th, Sean Duffy, the new US DOT Secretary, sent an email to New York Governor Hochul saying that he was rescinding approval of the tolling plan. President Trump gloated about the move on social media, writing “LONG LIVE THE KING.” Hochul fired back that New York “hasn't labored under a king in over 250 years” and said she'd see the administration in court. And things have just escalated from there! With us to discuss it all is reporter Dave Colon, who has been covering the congestion pricing saga for Streetsblog NYC and is known (to himself among others) as “America's beloved congestion pricing expert.” *** Support The War on Cars on Patreon and receive exclusive access to ad-free versions of regular episodes, Patreon-only bonus content, invitations to live events, merch discounts and free stickers! *** If you're in the New York area and are looking for a new e-bike, check out the Upway Sample Sale at their warehouse in Brooklyn on February 28th.
