“I congratulate Doug Steinhardt on his election as New Jersey Republican State Party Chairman.  He has been handed both a great challenge and a great opportunity.  While there are many good people and elected officials representing the NJGOP, the party’s brand is in absolute shambles.  Hoping Phil Murphy unpopular and Donald Trump popular isn’t a strategy.  We need to re-brand.  We need to present bold ideas that take our state in a new direction.  We need to outline a very clear vision that appeals to all New Jerseyans.  I am ready to roll up my sleeves and be part of the solution, and look forward to working with our new Chairman to do just that.”
