About this episode
Governor Kathy Hochul is set to delay the June 30 launch of the MTA’s congestion pricing program, which aims to toll drivers south of 60th Street in Manhattan. She reportedly plans to replace that revenue with additional taxes on New York City businesses. In other news, Rep. Dan Goldman is urging the city’s Department of Education to inform parents about safe gun storage. Gov. Hochul is also considering a ban on smartphones in schools, though WNYC’s Jessica Gould reports enforcement may be challenging. Additionally, Hochul is pushing for two online child safety bills: one to restrict social media companies from using addictive algorithms on kids, and another to prevent selling their personal information. WNYC’s Janae Pierre discusses these efforts with Albany reporter Jon Campbell. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company. See https://pcm.adswizz.com
