Trenton NJ, according to Assemblyman Gerry Scharfenberger from Red Bank tagged on to Governor Murphy”s borrowing binge is a surcharge on property tax bills:
In a Facebook post Scharfenberger explained ,”Just when you thought you heard everything, bill A-4175, on schedule for a vote this Thursday, would allow the state to borrow five billion dollars without voter approval that would add a statewide surcharge to everyone’s property tax bill. This, on top of the recent toll hikes, is a double kick in the gut to the New Jersey taxpayer. While the governor keeps business in perpetual lockdown, Trenton is looking for ways to raise money through more egregious taxation. This is outrageous, and shows why it is imperative that we reopen the state now! “
how do you start a recall petition
has this idiot ever heard of spending cuts to match revenue shortfall
typical GS sleazebag
Why is the governor penalizing property owners, or “folks” as the democrats like to call them? Surcharge the rich. Surcharge property owners. Surcharge businesses. Surcharge the middle class. Increase highway tolls. How about getting your house in order? We can only pay 100% of our wages toward this mess, he’s in the big boy seat, so it’s his mess. Layoff (fire) un-needed state employees, seek salary concessions from the remainder (like the rest of us) and stop trying to borrow (huh?) the state out of debt.
Murphy has no clue on how the people of NJ are suffering. Stop giving out our money to illegal immigrants, and maybe you wouldn’t have to pass a bill for five billion dollars. So done with this idiot.
RW will vote for him in droves next election, because we are…..
(wait for it)
RICH and STUPID
Democratic Communism
Democratic Communism.
Sell the Statehouse for 2 billion!
Let them work remotely! or in a tent!
Taxing property taxes is obscene!
Many people can’t afford their property taxes now. Stop giving money to illegals .my children had to pay to go to college no one gave them a free ride. Whats wrong with this picture.
Fair is fair.
If only property owners get taxed, then only property owners can vote.
We would no longer be a blue state
This guy is completely out of his mind!! New Jersey is already one of the highest taxed states!! Can’t wait for this ass clown to be done with his term
Knuckle heads vited him in so now they will pay through the nose
He needs to resign he has no clue
Murphy is the last straw on the back of taxpayers! This state, which I have lived in for 60+ years, will be taken over by illegals for the free ride he is giving him. We will no longer be the Garden State, we’ll be the garbage state.
Enough already how the hell do you expect people to live I cant ev ed n get my unemployment after 9 weeks cant get a hold of a human being tried everything to mo avail Murphy your outta here
Vote this clown out !!!
Vote this clown out he is clueless 😩
In a state where lenders first question when qualifying someone for a mortgage is “what are the taxes?”, leaders throw money at failed affordable housing initiatives and the number one problem on all the polls is high property tax— here comes a surcharge that will never end???? Cut services, the state provides nearly nothing I can’t get cheaper and better elsewhere. Why do they want to destroy the middle class?
Another reason why I am moving to Florida.Murphy has no clue tax tax tax then give boatloads to illegals who Do not pay taxes . What is wrong with this guy.
How are retired seniors supposed to come up with this extra money on our high taxes? Work overtime? He needs to go now!
This is to pay for nothing more than wages, pensions and healthcare benefits for teachers, judges, police & fire…. the same unions that elected him. Nothing to do with illegals.
Sorry dumbass this has nothing to do with the salaries of municipal police, firefighters or teachers and their benefits. Stop lying! 🤥
This is so New Jersey, as a sanctuary state, can give illegals free health care and free tuition to college along with welfare and free or low income housing.
He needs money to fix his teeth
Right dumb ass. Are you a public pensioner?
how about the state senators give up their perks, salary car and everything else they get from the state, Murphy should give up his salary, he doesnt need it, if he gets one, and if Lowes and Home Depot are open and food markets why not open everything up. Our elected officials should get out and look around their constituents home town and see what it is like
Murphy, another corrupt democrat that should never been voted into office. I hope he is voted out next election. He is a piece of shit. The only reason he was elected is because he lied and said that he was going to legalize marijuana the first 100 days in office. You can’t believe anything he says.
Let’s impeach this uneducated man. I will run for Congress. Mr. Northedge. I am a veteran and have a masters degree. Let’s set the state back to helping the people and not the elitist. Vote for Northedge for governor.
He is so very desperate, but continues to penalize the people that keep the lights on. Am I missing something or was Christie, with his inflated ego and False Bluster, more effective? And, less of an infection ? We need a transfusion into each vein if our Government. Enough with the rhetoric! If they aren’t doing what is right and effective, they are hurting us. Wipe the damn slate clean and start from scratch !
Sorry to disappoint you DumbAss nope I am not a public pensioner. Are you an ANTFA scumbag?
best day of are lives when we moved out of this state
You can kick and scream but murphy doesn’t give a sh*t. He won’t be living in New Jersey anyway. Thank you democRATS !!!
Murphy is a scumbag
We can wait long enough for this ass clown t be up for re-election. Either recaller he gets hit by a truck
Bring back Chris Christie! The only politician to ever care about the taxpayers of this state. He was hated by every state worker because he made them pay something for their health insurance!
Our mayor in the town I live in and His representatives decided to take a full pay cut, that means no pay until this COVID-19 shit is over with in New Jersey opens back up. Our mayo his representatives decided to take a full pay cut, that means no pay until this COVID-19 shit is over with in New Jersey opens back up. Our governor needs to learn from my mayor in New Jersey, by the way my mayor is a Republican and we all know the governor is a democratic piece of shit
Time to impeach this knucklehead! South Jersey can’t take his kind of politics anymore.
Better yet, Time to separate South Jersey and go our own way.
This guy is a self serving AH.
How about a peaceful protest to get him out of office, or at the least STOP raising out property taxes for everything !!! We WILL be paying for all the stimulus we were “given”, the Govt. doesn’t give anything for free!!!!
Typical democrat move. Him and his “blessed souls “ .
What about the rest of New Jersey’s souls. He’ll just drain the life out of them. I’ve lived here all my life and can’t wait to get out.
Let him give up his salary, that will help
Vote Republican. Vote this fucker out. I got to leave NJ.
Your friendly Democrats are all socialists in less than 10 years these United States will be a socialist country
This guy needs to be taken out. Where is the mafia when we need them/
If any of you expect NJ to help with rebuilding from the riot damage, etc., stop and think about where EVERY DOLLAR they give out comes from… just ONE place…
Taxes collected from individuals and companies. Nowhere Else.
So, if you want State Help in rebuilding or helping store owners ‘who need it,’ stop bitching about taxes. Where else does that money come from. Where else CAN it come from?
Think!
Defund the RPD!
Really hope this guy is gone asap. But I hope and please let the next Govenor be better then these last 2 clowns!!
I think police budgets need to be defunded. We’re OVERpoliced and UNDER served by the paramilitaries in our midst. Constitutional rights, freedoms and protections are ignored. There’s a problem!
House for SALE !
Never had children, School taxes are a big percentage of tax bill. I’m paying for the ungrateful kids living in NJ. I’m a senior approaching 70.
My taxes in 1997 was 6,800 in 2020 I’m mid 13,500. In 97 my average food bill was 68.00 now it 150.00 and eating less.
The only thing affordable right now is gasoline, but that will go up to 3.00+ shortly. Can’t take advantage of low fuel price$ to travel any where because of PROVID19.
On fixed income, my portfolio is in the Shi——..Trump what’s to privatize Social Security.
Our government is in shambles, county divided.
I’m moving to Canada!
Defund the RPD. Are you people complete idiots?
Are you a cop or retired cop?
