NJ Lt. Governor Guadagno touts state’s job-creation efforts

Trying to counter April’s picture of rising state unemployment, Lt. Gov. Kim Guadagno told lawmakers Monday the administration’s job-creation efforts were aiding the New Jersey comeback touted by her boss, Gov. Christie.

Testifying before the Assembly Budget Committee on state funding for business, Guadagno said last month’s rise in state unemployment to 9.1 percent after leveling out at 9 percent in March reflects that “people have begun to look again.”

“That means they believe there are jobs for them again,” Guadagno said.  (Fletcher, The Record)
