Senator Ed Durr responded after Governor Phil Murphy said, “it’s my money, and that’s how it’s going to be spent,” as he promised $65 million of taxpayer funds for a local project while campaigning over the weekend in West New York for a Democrat candidate for mayor.

“Governor Murphy just said out loud what most New Jersey Democrats think but dare not say,” said Durr (R-3). “He really believes that funds extracted from taxpayers by government are his to dole out on the campaign trail to buy votes or in the back rooms of Trenton to curry favor with Democratic party bosses. It’s a shocking admission that helps explain why Democrat leaders approved buying a fleet of new taxpayer-funded SUVs for themselves with pandemic relief funds while most New Jerseyans got nothing. This slush fund mentality that’s shared by Governor Murphy and the Democrat insiders who have ruled the Legislature for two decades is exactly why New Jersey has the highest tax burden in the nation for families and businesses.”
