Description

A federal judge in Manhattan is rejecting nearly all the legal arguments against the MTA’s congestion pricing program and upholding the federal Highway Administration's approval of the tolls. Of course, the ruling doesn’t affect Governor Kathy Hochul's indefinite pause on the plan. In other news, Manhattan D.A. Alvin Bragg is asking a judge to extend major parts of a gag order against Donald Trump citing dozens of death threats against him and other officials from the mid-April trial that led to Trump's 34 convictions for falsifying business records. Also, New York City has released a new plan to repair a decrepit section of the Brooklyn-Queens Expressway. WNYC's Stephen Nessen reports. Plus, the WNYC newsroom shares some of their favorite summer activities.
