I did not know exactly where to post this (NY Visitors? NJ? or here) but here it is.

The previous pre-tax deduction allowed for Transit Check (or chek, I forget) has gone from $230/mo to $120/mo due to a non-renewal of legislation.

This means, basically, anyone further than the Subway or Hoboken will be paying pre and post tax $$ to get their monthly passes.

This seems like such a no-brainer it irritates me. But what do you expect from an organization that actually had more money allowed pre-tax for PARKING EXPENSES ON A TRANSIT CHECK than actual mass transit costs? I hope this gets fixed soon.
