GAS Tax- We are paying 23 cents more at the pump because of Senator Steve Oroho’s bill. Not for the people!

$3.00, $2.90, $3.20, the numbers vary around the tri-county area but there are two things which are constant “GAS Prices” and it is not going down any time soon. North-West New Jersey, our home, has some of the highest numbers of people who commute out of their home county to go to work. The people who have 30 minutes or longer commutes already have to take on the pain at the pump that the Biden administration has brought on during his time in the White House. Those who commute to work are spending money on gas, food and mileage on their vehicles while also spending less time with their families. These situations are already not ideal for anyone involved, but throw into the mix the out of control and liberal gas tax implemented by Trenton and you are making a bad situation for us hard working New Jerseyans worse. The Gas tax law was pushed, defended and forced by our Senator Steven Oroho of the 24th legislative district and Democratic Senator Sarlo. Yes! They teamed up to hurt every New Jerseyan. There is no sugar coating the reality, without Senator Oroho’s support and help writing this shakedown it would never have been a reality.

The bill was a Democratic dream! More tax revenue stolen from the middle and working class folks of NJ that Trenton could spend wildly without any repercussions. Senator Oroho worked with establishment Democrats in the Senate to deliver this blow to the New Jersey tax payers all while trying to avoid his republican colleagues from seeing his true colors. The tax is just more socialist scam artistry from the liberals in Trenton but that didn’t seem to concern Senator Oroho at all. He pushed this bill through as quickly as he could to keep his Democratic masters in the Senate happy. The people of New Jersey are seeing firsthand the product of lazy legislation, mismanagement at the highest levels and swamp politics going unchecked for decades. I have said before and I will say it again: The 24th legislative district deserves better than what we have now. Steve Oroho has ignored the concerns of his constituents for years and instead worried more about consolidating his own power in Trenton, this translated to political favors and cooperation with Democrats to strengthen his stature in the Senate, all at the expense of us, the people of LD 24.

The Senator has not only brought down the hammer of taxation on us here in the 24th Legislative District but the entire State of NJ. People all over the State are suffering under this gas tax now more than ever thanks to Senator Oroho. We have an obligation to our neighbors both in our district and around the State to finally put an end to this madness by removing the Senator from office on June 8th. We as Republicans must finally stand up and take our district back by voting Senator Oroho out of office. Only then, will we finally stop him from further destroying our district and our State with his tyrannical tax plans, Democratic collaboration and swamp politics. President Trump made it clear swamp politicians are the true danger to all Americans. The President warned us about those who are only concerned with their own agendas and we must root them out. The proof is here, the evidence clear, Senator Oroho is the type of politician the President warned us about and now is the time to take our district back and finally have true Republican leadership fighting for us in Trenton, for the first time in 13 years!

This tax pains everyone at the pump every year, day in and day out, but in a world becoming more and more unstable every passing day these episodes of shortages and high prices will become more and more reoccurring. This tax that the Senator birthed was just more traitorous action in a long history of stabbing us, the constituents of LD 24, in the back. Steve only concerns himself with his establishment cronies and seems to disappear right after election day, hiding in Trenton and doing the bidding of the Democrats as well as their tyrant leader Governor Murphy. The absentee representation and political opportunism is not what we need in Trenton. We need a fighter who will tackle these issues head on and focus on the people who elected them and not their own political career. Someone who will find ways to actually improve the lives of those who live in our district. The farmers, the commuters, the blue collar average Joe must be the priority not the Swamp politician, the Democratic puppet masters, the elite favor seekers. We need to stand up for what we need now more than ever and what we need is change, not self-absorbed phonies.

Vote Dan Cruz for State Senate on June 8th. Let’s bring back true Republican values to Trenton. Lower taxes, promoting true individualism, defending our constitutional rights and improving the lives of the hard working folks of LD24! It is time to bring the power BACK to the PEOPLE!
