N.J. Senate passes job initiative
Lawmakers who had mixed feelings about a job-creation bill in 2011 unanimously backed the plan Monday, as they search urgently for ways to address New Jersey’s historically high unemployment.
Angel investors in technology start-ups could get tax breaks through a proposed program that Christie vetoed in 2011, Senate Democrats argued Monday, in the first volley of a political blame-game about the state’s 9.8-percent July unemployment rate.
Republicans, most of whom voted for the angel-investor measure last year but then refused to override Christie’s veto, unanimously supported it Monday. (Fletcher, The Record)
