SPRING LAKE HEIGHTS – President-elect Donald J. Trump’s mix of tax cuts and transportation spending could give New Jersey’s economy a boost. And his move to crackdown on immigration and free trade agreements could slow it down.
The result: The state’s economy is expected to grow slightly faster next year, but still fall short of the U.S., an economist for TD Bank said Friday.
““The possible scenarios are very wide for next year,” said Derek Burleton, TD Bank’s deputy chief economist. “I think we have to be honest with each other.”
