Steve Lonegan on Budget & Economy

Opposes Hurricane Sandy funding; funding needs more scrutiny

Eck said she would have voted against $60 billion in Sandy funding until further checks and balances were put in place. "So little accountability," she said.

"I did not support it," said Lonegan, a former mayor of Bogota. "I would have voted no."

End out-of-control spending; freeze spending and debt

New regulations on small business owners from landscapers to fitness trainers will be overturned. Regulations forcing high-density, Low Income Housing projects on our suburban towns will be repealed.

For too long, taxpayers have looked at Trenton as a hostile force working against the interests of working families and local towns. Those days will end when Steve Lonegan is Governor and taxpayers will finally have a friend in Trenton.

As Mayor, Steve Lonegan froze spending and debt while keeping taxes far below inflation. His conservative record is the reason Republicans kept council control for ELEVEN STRAIGHT ELECTIONS in a town that voted 64% for Obama and 66% for Lautenberg this year.
