Maybe the Spitzer scandal saved congestion pricing
Despite my previous predictions that Gov. Spitzer’s resignation may signal the end of congestion pricing, a growing crowd of voices is now suggesting that maybe his resignation will save the pricing plan. Alec Applebaum at New York Magazine’s Daily Intel blog speculated that incoming Gov. Patterson could shepherd the plan through the legislature. The Times predicts an era of reconciliation now that the self-proclaimed steamroller is out. Could this just be the sex scandal that saved congestion pricing?
