its obvious the tri-state is being punished by the tax reform and now this attempt at reneging on the gateway deal.
Such an agreement will almost certainly be predicated on Schumer supporting whatever half baked infrastructure plan Trump eventually proposes, which isn't going to happen. Even if funding was green lit this year I doubt new tunnels would be completed before a catastrophic accident in the decaying ones cuts service.

NJ better buy a crapload of canoes.
