Summarization
This thread discusses multiple proposed solutions to improve regional railroad access in New York. Specifically, solutions such as refunding NYC residents who pay taxes that are not used by the state in NYC, focusing MTA service cuts on LIRR and Metro-North, implementing congestion pricing for anyone from outside of the 5 boroughs, higher LIRR and MNR fares, renaming the state and restoring historic bridge and tunnel names, and sending Gov. Hochul a message about her political capital being wasted on a "stupid fight." The overall consensus is that the Senate Democrats should take more action to improve regional railroad access in New York and should focus on the rule of law and decency.

1626045500607860736 | @ZachReports Congrats to NY Dems who held publicly united in opposition! This is how to make progress! Throw away the baggage of politics. Dems seem to be at a consensus: continue to win, incrementally or otherwise, to deliver, and know it's only achievable and virtuous as a Big Tent. | 2 |
1627719718860619786 | @ZachReports NYC should stop subsidizing the suburbs, congestion pricing for anyone out of the 5 boros, and higher LIRR and MNR fares | 1 |
1626296210687422465 | @SamMellins @ZachReports @GovKathyHochul She should’ve allowed the coalition of Attorney’s and Bar Associations to proceed with going to court. She squashed that effort on or about January 27. She should’ve never asked the Judge to withdraw his nomination. She acted in a spineless, sneaky and amateur manner. | 1 |
1627856783921356801 | @ZachReports Hopefully reversing the trend of naming every single piece of major infrastructure in NYS after a Democrat politician | 1 |
1625894109612322822 | @ZachReports And this is why arguing the Senate is required to vote doesn't really help you when the temporary president opposes. She gets to decide when that vote is. | 1 |
1625899199224066052 | @ZachReports Also, if they surprise everyone by showing up, suddenly the vote gets moved to another time. Calendar control is arguably leadership's most important power! | 1 |

1627695446243135490 | @AnilBeephanjr @ZachReports Then refund NYC residents the State taxes we pay that don't get spent here in NYC. If you aren't going to pay to maintain the economic engine that powers most of the GDP in this State then you shouldn't get to benefit from it. | 52 |
1627694900593537025 | @ZachReports @Union_Tpke Do we get to ban anyone living in NY outside of 5 boroughs from stepping foot inside the City & using our infrastructure? Better yet, any state taxes paid by NYC residents not used by State in NYC should get refunded to City. They'd learn real quick how dependent they are on us. | 43 |
1625985791871557633 | @ZachReports it was, quite literally, a vote on the merits of Justice LaSalle. that's exactly what this was. what on Earth does she think they were voting on - renaming the state? | 37 |
1627705235463368709 | @ZachReports Focus any MTA service cuts on LIRR & Metro-North! | 34 |
1627719718860619786 | @ZachReports NYC should stop subsidizing the suburbs, congestion pricing for anyone out of the 5 boros, and higher LIRR and MNR fares | 32 |
1625983132779282438 | @ZachReports @AaronBlake Can someone explain to me what she achieved with this? There were like 3 people who thought this was a good idea and two were the judge and her. | 27 |
1627719003136196610 | @ZachReports So do we get to put a toll on every highway entering the city + make the LIRR city-centric? | 27 |
1625969426834096136 | @ZachReports The NY State Constitution doesn't say "floor vote" or "full Senate" or anything similar regarding nominations. | 26 |
1627823914859610113 | @ZachReports Everybody in NYC still calls the RFK Bridge the Triboro; still calls the Ed Koch Bridge the Queensboro; still calls the Hugh Carey Tunnel the Brooklyn-Battery Tunnel. This new bill is just more anti-Cuomo posturing. | 24 |
