At a recent afternoon news conference, Senators Tom Kean, Jr. and Diane Allen were joined by a united Republican caucus in calling on the Democrat Majority to set a date for completion of the Governors property tax relief toolkit.

“For a year now, we’ve been told by the Majority that, to quote the Senate President, ‘The toolkit has to happen’,” said Senator Kean. “However, blatant partisan posturing against the Governor has caused them to break the promise they made last year to the taxpayers. Their inaction is forcing service reductions, police and fire layoffs, and tax increases that our communities cannot afford and the taxpayers should not be forced to bear. It is time for the Democrats to stop with their small minded politics and set a date certain to complete the toolkit and provide taxpayers the relief they deserve.”  Read More & Watch Video Here 
 
This year the Entire Senate and Assembly in New Jersey are up for Re-Election.
On November 1st Taxpayers will have a choice to vote for the Legislators that are trying to help reduce their property taxes, or vote for the Legislators that are standing in the way. 

One would think that common sense dictates that voters will vote for who is trying to help reduce their property taxes, but this is also New Jersey.  We will know on November 2nd if the taxpayers of New Jersey have voted for "Real" Hope and Change, or more of the same.
