Christie at Elmwood Park
Christie calls on South Jersey chamber for support, says Trenton spending must stop spending
Gov. Chris Christie delivered a stinging rebuke to Democratic legislators and called on business leaders to back his agenda at a speech to the Chamber of Commerce Southern New Jersey today.
“Now I’ve been pretty nice up until this point. That ends today,” Christie said to a crowd of 550 at the Crowne Plaza Cherry Hill. “I am tired of them lying to the public and that’s what they’re doing.”
Christie criticized a series of bills introduced by Democratic legislators, including the Residential Foreclosure Transformation Act, sponsored by Sen. Raymond J. Lesniak (D-Union), and a bill establishing a state council for responsible fatherhood, sponsored by Assembly members Troy Singleton (D-Mount Laurel) and Bonnie Watson Coleman (D-Trenton). He said the measures were unfunded and would lead to tax increases. (Kitchenman, NJBIZ)
