From New Jersey Newsroom, January 17, 2012:

Gov. Chris Christie’s State of the State address Tuesday drew criticism from Democrats, especially about his proposed 10 percent across-the-board state income tax cut, and praise from Republicans and business.

New Jersey Newsroom includes a statement on the proposal from NJPP president Deborah Howlett in its roundup of reactions.

“A 10 percent across-the-board income tax cut would mean that New Jersey would lose $1 billion in revenues,” she says. “This disinvestment in the state has to stop. If there is truly to be a Jersey comeback, the state must first recognize how far we have fallen and then commit to an agenda that will allow all of us to prosper.”
