Governor Sherrill criticized FIFA for expecting New Jersey to pay $48 million in World Cup transit costs while generating billions in profit.
New Jersey Governor Mikie Sherrill is clashing with FIFA over $48 million in transit costs for the 2026 World Cup, as train tickets are projected to jump from $12.90 to $100.
Most coverage centers on Sherrill’s demand that FIFA cover World Cup transit costs: Reuters describes her push for a subsidy, while Fox News foregrounds reports of NJ Transit tickets topping $100. NJ.com also reports her call for commuter discounts during game-related disruptions, while the New York Post covers FIFA’s response.
