Assembly Democrats are prepared to support the 2% property tax cap deal struck Saturday between Gov. Chris Christie and Sen. Steve Sweeney (D-West Deptford)
In a statement released moments after the democrat Assembly caucus concluded, Assembly Speaker Oliver, who refused to support the deal Saturday until she had met the Assembly Democrats, threw her support behind the plan.
“The Assembly Democratic caucus – as it always does - had an energetic discussion about property tax reform and where New Jersey goes from here," Oliver said. “We believe the plan to cap increases at 2 percent and provide exceptions incorporates many of our ideas to control property taxes and is a significant change from the governor’s initial plan. The proposal has our support."
NJECPAC will provide further details on the 2% cap, including the added exemptions in the new deal when they become available.
