Republicans have been sounding the alarm about New Jersey’s disastrous business climate for years.
Now, the consequences are impossible to ignore. New Jersey suffered record job losses in July, employers are leaving in droves, and businesses are moving to states with more competitive climates.
Now Burlington, founded in Burlington, New Jersey, and named after the town, is moving its headquarters across the river to Pennsylvania.
It turns out the cost of doing business matters to the people doing business… For decades, Democrats have controlled New Jersey’s government and had every opportunity to make our state more competitive. Instead, they have done nothing while businesses, jobs, and opportunity continue moving out of state.
Even Pennsylvania, with a Democrat Governor, is eating New Jersey’s lunch, despite New Jersey’s enormous economic advantages of its own.
This is not inevitable. It is the result of failed leadership and years of bad policy. If Democrats keep doing the same thing, New Jersey will keep getting the same result.
New Jersey deserves SO much better.
