Trenton, NJ – Americans for Prosperity New Jersey released its annual legislative scorecard today, a look back on 2018 and the first half of the two-year legislative session.
Americans for Prosperity New Jersey State Director Erica Jedynak issued the following statement:
“It is no secret that New Jersey’s fiscal house is in crisis. This year’s Scorecard illustrates how our state legislature can and should be held accountable for the policies they support. We urge lawmakers to address the state’s affordability crisis, take on cronyism, and enact legislation to reduce barriers to opportunity for all New Jerseyans.”
Background:
This year’s A’s include Senators Doherty and Pennacchio; and Assemblymen Auth, Bucco, and Space.
The AFP Scorecard is a comprehensive view into how the New Jersey State Legislature voted over the past year. The project is a labor of love by our team members. We include new subsections, so you can see the lawmaker’s score by issue area. Most importantly, we thank all our activists who participated over the past year. Empowering the people’s voice and taking action is how we will change New Jersey for the better.
