    When Mayor-elect Mamdani takes office, he will control over 6,300 miles of streets throughout the five boroughs. Reducing car dependence is one of the best ways to reduce costs for New Yorkers. Owning a car costs nearly $9,000 annually, while taking transit costs just $1,500.

    The next time your train is late, your bus is trapped in traffic, or your subway station is still missing an elevator, you know who to blame: Governor Kathy Hochul.
    Gov. Hochul is choosing special interests over cleaner air, safer streets, and better transit for New Yorkers. over a mockup of the daily news that reads: "Hochul to NYC: Drop Dead / Withholds better transit for millions"

    This is true: Converting asphalt into planted medians can reduce runoff by 80%. When heavy rain overwhelms New York Cityโ€™s sewer system, impermeable surfaces deliver sewage and street pollution into waterways. We should absolutely be doing this!

    Under this new rule, if youโ€™re driving a two-ton SUV at 40 mph, you get a traffic ticket โ€” but if youโ€™re riding an e-bike at 16 mph, you are summoned to criminal court. A 50-pound e-bike would be subject to a lower speed limit than a 5,000-pound car on the same street.

    It's a toll, not a tax. You only pay if you choose to drive into the most transit-rich, walkable place in America โ€” and it's working in London, Paris, Singapore, Rome, and Milan.
