Here is a new television ad urging lawmakers to support Mike Bloomberg's sustainability plan, also known as PlaNYC. As the ad notes, it's supported by the New York Times, New York Post, Daily News. Oh, and two guys named Bill Clinton and Al Gore.

State Senator Bill Perkins of Harlem -- who considers Michael Bloomberg to be the worst mayor he's ever seen -- sort of likes the idea of congestion pricing, he told me yesterday. "There is no question in my mind that you can do what he wants to do without it being a tax on the middle class and the poor," he said. -- Azi Paybarah
