Corzine And Weinberg: Just More Of The Same



A 17 Year Trenton Insider's Record...

Trenton Insiders Kick The Can Down The Road. Loretta Weinberg voted to rely on one-shot gimmicks to balance FY2010 budget instead of making the difficult decisions to cut out wasteful partisan spending. This irresponsible budgeting has created a $10 billion deficit for FY2011. (S2010, 2009) (Josh Margolin, "N.J. short $8 billion, report says," Star Ledger, 07/22/09)


Trenton Insiders Raise Taxes And Fees.
Loretta Weinberg has sponsored taxes and fees on everything from alcoholic beverages to dog licensing fees. (S2013, 08/09) (S695, 06/07)
Loretta Weinberg has voted for over 90 taxes and fees. (FY 96, 97, 98, 99, 00, 01, 02,03, 04, 05, 06, 07, 08, 09 Budgets)

Trenton Insiders Eliminate Property Tax Relief From Homeowners. Weinberg not only voted with Governor Corzine to repeal New Jerseyans property tax rebates, she has even sponsored her own property tax increases. (FY 2010 Budget) (S843 08/09)


Trenton Insiders Claim They Are Responsible With Taxpayers Dollars... Weinberg is the Chairman of the Legislative Oversight Committee, The "Watchdog" Of Regulatory Bodies. (NJ Legislative Website, www.njleg.state.nj.us, accessed: 07/25)

...Without Actually Do Anything About It. Weinberg has held only ONE oversight meeting this year. (NJ Legislative Website, www.njleg.state.nj.us, accessed: 07/25)


Trenton Insiders Create "Do-Nothing" Task Forces. Over the last two legislative sessions, Weinberg sponsored 15 bills to create or expand government commissions and task forces. (NJ Legislative Website, www.njleg.state.nj.us, accessed: 07/25)


Trenton Insiders Practice Blind Partisanship...Regardless Of The Consequences for New Jerseyans. Weinberg did nothing to stop the $1.2 billion that Jon Corzine increased taxes on hardworking middle class families. (FY 2010 Budget)

In addition to the poor record on financial issues, she has lead the fight to destroy the family structure in New Jersey. Her choice as LG convinced me that the Corzine team needs to be defeated. The only way I see to do that is to vote for Christie. I just hope he will stop the continuous leftward march his campaign has been on since his primary win.
