Gov. Christie's 'Jersey Comeback' Ignores Economic Security for Middle-Class Families
January 25, 2012
Nobody likes to highlight their own failures. So it’s no wonder in his second State of the State Address, Governor Christie did not even touch on the issue of economic security. While most of New Jersey families scrape by paycheck to paycheck, the central message of Chris Christie’s vision for our state is that we’re in “comeback” mode.
Despite the fact that poll after poll still indicates the overriding concern of the public is the economy, the Governor’s message relied heavily on platitudes and empty rhetoric, leaving any reference to bolstering the livelihoods of middle and low income families on the cutting room floor.
