Government and Politics

From: New Jersey Governor Phil Murphy“This bill is a disaster for the American people and the people of New Jersey. By passing this legislation overnight, House Republicans are clearly aware that their extreme, far-right agenda does not reflect the values or priorities of our fellow citizens.
“In one fell swoop, this bill would rip away health care coverage from struggling families, cut food assistance for our most vulnerable neighbors and children, and raise costs on hardworking Americans.”
“Congressmen Kean, Smith, and Van Drew shamefully voted to approve these devastating cuts and caved on fully repealing the SALT deduction in order to shower billionaires and gun manufacturers with budget-busting tax breaks that will explode our deficit. They have betrayed the people they represent, who will suffer the consequences of their actions.”
