STOP NJ CONGESTION Act: Penalties for Congestion Pricing Systems

This act aims to protect New Jersey residents from new urban congestion charges, like those planned in New York. If a state implements such charges, it could lose a portion of its federal transportation funds. Additionally, new congestion pricing projects will require consent from affected neighboring states, giving citizens more say in decisions impacting their commutes.
Key points
States implementing congestion pricing systems (e.g., in New York) may lose 50% of their federal transportation funds.
New congestion pricing pilot projects will require consent from affected states, increasing citizen control over such initiatives.
