I like her.
Mmph. She does good sometimes, like here. Still pretty bummed about the right to repair law for NY being modified last second to allow the sale of "completed assemblies".

I don't. She's the one who delayed the implementation of congestion pricing because she was scared that the Democrats would lose some suburban votes. Were it not for her betrayal, congestion pricing would have been live for 6 more months, and probably built some more resilience against this attack.
Better late than never.
To add insult to injury, she cut the prices significantly, gutting the potential revenue the MTA could have gotten, for not that much benefit for the drivers who still choose to drive in.
