Jack Ciattarelli: Pandemic restaurant restrictions devastated the economy

Ciattarelli has criticized Murphy's handling of the pandemic, saying that his administration's policies cost lives in nursing homes, that the state botched the vaccine rollout, and that Murphy's restrictions on restaurants devastated the economy. He also said Murphy has failed New Jerseyans by focusing on progressive goals like marijuana legalization instead of the state's long-standing fiscal problems.
