September 26, 2023: Midday News: New Jersey Senator Corey Booker urges indicted Senator Robert Menendez to step down. Meanwhile, a NJ think-tank suggests that the state could address NJ Transit’s $1 billion deficit by maintaining a corporate tax surcharge. Also, the remnants of Hurricane Ophelia are expected to dissipate by evening, as per the National Weather Service. Finally, with the rise in remote work, the dynamics of New York City neighborhoods like Manhattan and Downtown Brooklyn are evolving.
