Senator Diane Allen (R-7) sent a letter today to New Jersey’s Public Advocate Ronald Chen asking that he reconsider his refusal to examine Governor Corzine’s secret plan to sell New Jersey’s toll roads. In the letter Senator Allen asks the Public Advocate to file an Amicus brief in support of Assemblywoman Jennifer Beck’s and Assemblyman Sean Kean’s lawsuit in Mercer County superior court to release the Steer Davies and Gleave report. Copies of the letters are attached.
“I am disappointed by the Public Advocate’s support of the governor’s policy of secrecy regarding his plan to sell out toll roads,” Allen stated. “When I voted to confirm Ronald Chen as New Jersey’s Public Advocate I was assured that he would support openness and transparency in state government with vigor. I hope he reconsiders his decision and takes a stand against secrecy and concealment.”
