| N.J. Chamber of Commerce President Tom Bracken’s Statement on the Governor Signing Three Economic Growth Bills Today |
|
| The signing of these economic growth bills, which were supported by the New Jersey Chamber of Commerce, sends a message to the rest of the country that New Jersey’s leaders are supportive of burgeoning industries such as offshore wind and film/digital media, and will work with companies seeking to create jobs and facilities benefitting our economy and residents. The State Chamber thanks Gov. Murphy and the Legislature for paving the way to a strong future by making our state more attractive to innovative businesses that are seeking to invest in New Jersey and call New Jersey home.
In addition, the modification to the New Jersey Economic Development Authority’s ASPIRE program will expand eligibility to commercial and residential developers looking to build key projects such as transit villages, affordable housing units and commercial buildings in areas in need. This will encourage more transformative real estate investments in New Jersey that will benefit residents and workers living in our towns and cities. Several New Jersey Chamber of Commerce members who have expertise in economic development recommended the positive changes reflected in this legislation which was then enacted by the NJEDA Board of Directors.
The bills signed were A5651/S4019; A5393/S3748; and A5644/S4023. |
