The Issue: Manhattan’s controversial congestion pricing program, set to take effect June 30.
Congestion pricing is another way to kill businesses in our city and put a financial burden on those that commute to work ( “Railing no fare at MTA,” May 1).
I am sick of this administration taking and taking while giving nothing in return.
Mayor Adams has once again proven what a worthless leader he really is. Gov. Hochul disgraces the office.

So you want to eliminate all the adverse effects of congestion pricing — but preserve its benefits?
Put congestion pricing where it belongs, where every New Yorker will accept it without hesitation: on our bridges and tunnels.
The key is modestly tolling the free East and Harlem River bridges while revising the tolls on the rest of the region’s bridges and tunnels.
This way we could avoid disruption to neighborhoods above 60th Street and end circuitous travel to avoid tolls.
