ELIMINATE THE TOLL ON THE VERRIZANO BRIDGE FOR NYC RESIDENTS. STATEN ISLAND IS THE ONLY BOROUGH OF NYC WHICH REQUIRES A FEE TO ENTER. IT REPRESENTS AN ECONOMIC TOLL ON NYC RESIDENTS.
Why is this important?
MY DAUGHTER LIVES ON STATEN ISLAND AND SHE SHE JUST HAD A BABY. I LIVE IN BROOKLYN AND I HAVE TO PAY A TOLL TO VISIT MY GRANDSON. WHY SHOULD A TAX PAYING NYC RESIDENT HAVE TO PAY A TOLL TO GO FROM ONE BOROUGH TO ANOTHER BOROUGH?
