Chu, Herbst: One year in, congestion pricing is working for Long Island | Long Island Business News Congestion pricing on Long Island has reduced traffic, improved air quality, and increased LIRR ridership while funding critical transit infrastructure upgrades.

Long Island is already feeling the benefits of congestion relief – and with continued investments in the LIRR, commutes will only get better for riders and drivers alike.

When NJ Transit fares go up, who gets left behind?

Transit equity means your zip code or whether you own a car shouldn’t decide your access to jobs, healthcare, or opportunity.

New Jersey riders deserve fair fares. Read the full op-ed: www.nj.com/opinion/2026...

No one should be blocked from work, school, or healthcare because transit isn’t safe, reliable, or affordable. That’s why transit is a civil right.

Today, on #TransitEquityDay, the fight goes on.

Four Years in, Southern California’s First-in-the-Nation Approach to Clean up Warehouse Pollution is a Beacon If the WAIRE program were a state, it would rank 21st in electric trucks.

Today, the South Coast Air Quality Management District released its much anticipated report on how SoCal warehouses are complying with the region’s innovative warehouse pollution program.

The results? They're looking very promising.

The cost of deliveries should not be our health. 🚛😮

Over 5 million NYers live within half a mile of a mega-warehouse. Our new digital ads are calling out the massive harms of diesel truck pollution. Our electeds must require warehouses to report and cut their pollution!
