Statement on Governor Murphy’s 2019 Budget Address
TRENTON, March 5, 2019 — New Jersey Future Executive Director Peter Kasabach released the following statement in response to Governor Murphy’s 2019 budget address:
“New Jersey Future is encouraged by the governor’s commitment in his budget address to investing in critical infrastructure upgrades, particularly NJ Transit. Reliable public transportation is vital to the success of our cities and to meet the increasing demand for housing near transit, but this is not the only type of infrastructure in need of investment. Our water infrastructure is in desperate need of repair and we hope to see funding for this in the next budget.”
