The shocking failure to notify the public of a Manhattan flyover of Air Force One and an F-16 fighter plane sadly shows New Jersey has every reason to question the Corzine administration's ability to disseminate vital homeland security information.

The Governor simply refuses to match his actions to his rhetoric and stop perpetuating the myth that New Jersey can maintain a level of government far in excess of what it needs and can afford. 

Governor Corzine keeps sticking his fingers in the dike as new leaks in the state's revenue stream develop daily. It's clear now that he's running out of fingers, Senator Bucco said.

Breakdown in Leadership Will Mean Lost Jobs and Services

When New York almost went bankrupt, it brought in Felix the Fixer and created Big MAC to sell long term debt and beg for a federal bailout. Governor Corzine's fiscal mismangement may force New Jersey to do the same in the very near future.

The six Republican members of the Senate Budget and Appropriations Committee commended the Department of Military and Veterans Affairs today for spending agency money in a responsible and cost-efficient manner while providing services to our honored veterans.

Republican Senate Budget Officer Anthony Bucco says he is disappointed, but not surprised that Governor Corzine is looking first at eliminating property tax relief before cutting other spending from the state budget.

It's long past time to wait for the governor's proposals on how to eliminate the $2.1 billion deficit. Republicans call on Senator Barbara Buono to hold special hearings of the Senate Budget and Appropriations Committee.

Leadership from Governor Corzine, not Wall Street financing schemes, are what's needed to solve our state's transportation funding problem, said Senator Anthony Bucco.
