This budget would do more to hurt than help the people of New Jersey. The Bush budget will shortchange health insurance for the state’s poorest children, cut higher education programs, and slash homeland security grants almost in half. The President’s budget priorities are wrong for New Jersey and wrong for the nation. I am confident that the final budget approved by the Democratic Congress will be substantially different than what President Bush proposed today.
