Kathy Hochul & Zohran Mamdani 🀝 More Expensive Commutes for New Jerseyans

January 7, 2026

Radical Democrat Kathy Hochul and socialist Zohran Mamdani held a press conference to celebrate… higher taxes! 

Yep, the pair actually bragged about the expensive and unpopular congestion pricing scheme and confirmed that tolls are “on schedule to go up,” eventually rising from $9 to $15.

This painful, cost-hiking agenda is the same one that every single New Jersey Democrat, including Nellie Pou, champions.

β€œInstead of fighting to make life more affordable, crazy Kathy Hochul, dangerous socialist Zohran Mamdani, and out of touch Democrat Nellie Pou are making New Jerseyans’ commutes more expensive. It is totally backwards and wrong.” β€“ NRCC Spokeswoman Maureen O’Toole
