PARAMUS — Lawmakers are vowing to fight back against a proposed New York City congestion toll with a fee of New Jersey's own that would tax out-of-state drivers going to the city.
U.S. Rep. Josh Gottheimer, D-Wyckoff, said new legislation is in the works to add what he called a sales tax at every New Jersey/New York crossing, and tolls for all non-New Jersey residents.
The New York congestion plan would impose a toll on motorists driving into Manhattan below 60th Street during peak times. New York received key approval at the end of March to move forward with the plan.
