New Jersey is about to pour $100 MILLION in taxpayer subsidies into a risky scheme to install windmills off of New Jersey's coast!

• New Jersey’s electricity prices will increase by 2.1 percent, in 2017, within a range of 0.5 percent and 4.2 percent; and

• From 2017 to 2036, the average household ratepayer will pay $431 in higher electricity costs; while the average commercial ratepayer will pay an extra $3,054 and the average industrial ratepayer an extra $109,335.

For Immediate Release – May 17, 2012

Americans for Prosperity state director Steve Lonegan has issued the following statement regarding a plan to replace and monetize the Scudder Falls I-95 Bridge.

“The scheme that’s been hatched to replace the Scudder Falls Bridge and turn it into a toll road is emblematic of Trenton’s contempt for hard-working New Jersey taxpayers. There is no reason to tear down and rebuild a perfectly sound structure, amass over $300 million more in debt on the backs of taxpayers and then slam motorists with even more tolls. And the government is not fooling anyone by calling it economic growth. New Jersey taxpayers know better and they have had enough of the endless borrowing and waste that is destroying our state. The plan to replace the Scudder Falls Bridge is just more of the same and it needs to be stopped.”
