The head of the MTA said he remained optimistic that President Donald Trump would not repeal New York’s congestion pricing program, even as the new president had conversations with Gov. Kathy Hochul in recent days about the plan’s future.

President Donald Trump and New York Gov. Kathy Hochul have spoken twice in the past week about ending congestion pricing in New York City, a source familiar with the conversation tells CBS News New York's Marcia Kramer.

Second, he took aim at the specific legal route New Jersey Gov. Phil Murphy has suggested Trump take to congestion pricing — a more extensive environmental review. That seems like it could fly in the face of Trump’s own attempts to speed up permitting for other projects.
