NJ’s Do Nothing Legislature Returns
Posted on 14 September 2008
From this article in NJ.com:
The summer silence at the Statehouse ends Monday when the Legislature returns from a 12-week break. Leaders hope to spend the rest of the year fine-tuning a new housing law, tightening ethical standards and passing long-delayed reforms of the government’s power to seize property through eminent domain.
Senate President Richard Codey (D-Essex) said lawmakers also will hold hearings aimed at combating underage binge drinking “so we can save lives on our college campuses” and cracking down on diploma mills.
This is so indicative of the useless legislature we have in this state. Businesses are leaving, people are being priced out, local municipalities are running out of money because Trenton has taken it all and what do they want to work on? Free housing, fake ethical standards and eminent domain. Oh, and binge drinking. They are complete clowns. But they at least are admitting the truth:
“I don’t think we’re going to be all that busy,” predicted Assembly Minority Leader Alex DeCroce (R-Morris).
And Codey concedes “there’s no universal, overriding issue that everybody’s engaged in.”
Really? Nothing pressing. Losers every one.
