The news comes as Mamdani released his plan to increase revenue across the city by quadrupling the cost of tolls, licensing, permits, and inspections of all commercial vehicles.
"He's going to put a lot of the independent truckers out of business." —New York won’t last long without resources being shipped in.
Did they though? Or was it the rampant fraud that got him [s]elected in?
I find it hard to believe that true patriotic NYers actually voted this POS in. Same for Cali "voting" in the likes of Newscum and Bass, or IL voting in Pritzker and the POS Chicago mayor. I'm not convinced any of these people are "voted" in. It's the voter fraud that's getting these people in and it MUST be stopped.
Liberals maybe yes, but I believe a lot lot of election Fraud is involved… no one in the right mind would vote to turn, New York into a backward country.
I told my husband that this weekend. I believe the goal is to have muslim rule in our largest city and go from there to other cities. I’m wondering if Trump will get involved or let them do this. Because we know you can tell people the truth but it doesn’t do any good. People have to learn for themselves the reality of something like this.
Yeah, but it might be a little hard though, the media they might spin it around as a good thing. I watched one short clip online in the news idiot said people are just being paranoid.
I’m hoping President Trump will eventually step in and use this as leverage to go after other Democrat states.
I’ve got my popcorn 🍿 and watching this shitshow. I feel bad for the ones who can’t get out who didn’t vote for that… those are the ones who will suffer the greatest.
No business or company will ship food there. They would have to double or triple the price to cover the extra fees, then Mandiminini would put a cap on it, or raise taxes again, then they would give up and stop shipping.
He will try to sue companies and force them to do business with them.
I see this lasting 1-4 weeks tops without major adjustments to the tax scheme.
People dont have hordes, larders or pantries to last more than a week in NY, NY.
I've never seen a swift truck without a jacked front bumper. If a swift truck is backing next to me in the truck stop its total cringe.. they can be total idiots..
Being that this is NYC, I would go with M61A1 7.62 Mini-Gun w/select fire control...in fact, I would have one in the front also, THERE WOULD BE A NEED FOR A COW GUARD ON THE FRONT...SHOT, THEN PLOW!!!!!
It's a waste of time to go there,, the traffic is horrible and nowhere to park, and the parking fines are astronomical and they could deduct points from your license. It's as bad as delivering to Amazon warehouse, you could end up spending all day waiting in line w/ other trucks just to unload.
The American Trucking Association (ATA) has not directly commented on any specific actions by a person named "Mamdani," as there is no widely reported record of a recent mayoral election in NYC with that name. (👈Welp, it's Google, so...). However, the ATA did recently praise the Trump administration for terminating New York City's congestion pricing plan, a move that it believes is beneficial to the trucking industry. The ATA argued the previous plan was an unfair toll that would have harmed truckers who provide essential services to the city.
Criticism of prior congestion pricing: The ATA strongly opposed New York's earlier congestion pricing scheme, calling it a "disastrous tolling scheme" and a "shakedown".
Benefits of termination: The association stated the termination was a win for truckers, who are essential to New York City's economy, and praised the Trump administration for ending the toll.
Disagreement with policy goals: The ATA also argued that the revenue generated was not being used to improve roads and bridges, but instead would have subsidized a "bloated and mismanaged transit bureaucracy".

Independent truckers don't go there nor should live there.
Nah. We just won't go there! Perhaps some local trucking operations but nothing that will matter elsewhere. They voted for it.

Figure about a week lol
My company won’t work with NY state. You have to register under their state so they can charge bogus taxes.
I should ask my neighbor. He is a trucker.
Trucker here. It's true.
Let them starve then. No truckers would be living in the city. Parking spaces are premium. You can't even park a bicycle there.
True that Swift is not going to do business in NYC? I cannot find corroboration on this, hence my question.
FYI, I cannot confirm this just yet.

It appears to be fake.
Thank you.
I've never seen a swift truck without a jacked front bumper. If a swift truck is backing next to me in the truck stop its total cringe.. they can be total idiots..
Im sure they hire the 'best' though... lol
Stevie Wonder Institute For Trucking, Sure Wish I Finished Training, there are plenty kek
They must be. LOL
Their advertising on the truck lies. Those trucks are anything BUT Swift.
A small taste of plan B.
Truly FAFO
I think it would be a good-paying job to be tail gunner on one of those rigs rolling into NYC... alas, we'll never find out.

Good for Swift! Now, lets get others to do that same and choke NYC back to the 1900's. Hey, White liberals you voted for this now reap the rewards!
I was told it's fake.
They probably don’t eat much meat. I would guess most of the liberals, especially old women, are vegans. I can’t imagine believing the hogwash.
The upper-class there certainly does. Same for the high-end hotel customers temporarily there from around the world.
Stop all sushi from entering New York. Get a lot of popcorn first...

My family just this summer went there as some tourists. They like it, but then, they are leftish.
What do you say about this NYC situation, ATA? (NYC = New York City, ATA = American Trucking Association)

I think the ATA should just let NYC starve.
I'm truly interested in what they say about this.
What Google AI says...
American Trucking Associations
I saw that also.
A trucker just confirmed that it's true.
Guys, I cannot find any corroboration on this story. Please be careful with it before spreading it around.
Thank you. Why I put the research mark on it.
Absolutely, BD. You did everything correctly here. I just know this community and sometimes they can be in the mindset of "fire, ready, aim" lol.
"fire, ready, aim"
LOL
Nothing on their website.
Thank you. I will delete.
Satire...
Thanks. I deleted.
President Trump should cut off all federal funding to…
I agree.
