Following New Jersey Democrats’ passage of a massive $58.8 billion budget, Republican State Leadership Committee Communications Director Mason Di Palma released the following statement:
“New Jersey residents are frustrated with the high cost of living and the continuous onslaught of new taxes and regulations that burden working-class families. Tonight, Trenton Democrats pushed through a nearly $60 billion budget filled with new taxes and increased spending, showing indifference to the challenges faced by residents of the Garden State. New Jersey deserves leadership that prioritizes affordability and addresses the concerns of its people. State Republicans are committed to slashing taxes, axing regulations, and fighting for a better future for all New Jerseyans.” – RSLC Communications Director Mason Di Palma
