(TRENTON) - Assemblywoman Yvonne Lopez (D-Middlesex), Chair of the Assembly Housing Committee, issued the following statement today regarding proposed cuts to the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development's (HUD's) budget: “The proposed $33 billion in federal cuts to HUD, including eliminating $26 billion in funding for rental assistance programs, and the introduction of a two-year time limit raise serious concerns, particularly for the many families already struggling to afford housing. These changes would be detrimental to working families that rely on Section 8 housing and could undermine housing stability for some of our most vulnerable residents. “At a time when the New Jersey Legislature is working to expand housing opportunities and tackle the affordability crisis head-on, rolling back support at the federal level sends the wrong message. We must remain committed to protecting the programs that help people remain safely housed.”

Congressman Van Drew introduced a resolution condemning the disturbing rise in antisemitic attacks across the United States. Since the Hamas terrorist attack on Israel on October 7th, 2023, antisemitic incidents have reached all-time highs across the country.

This resolution makes it clear that Congress fully condemns this attack as well as antisemitism in all forms. The resolution is co-led with Rep. Neguse, whose district was the site of the attack, as well as the co-chairs of the Congressional Jewish Caucus, Rep. Schneider and Rep. Nadler. Nearly 50 additional members of Congress from both sides of the aisle have co-sponsored the resolution.

Gloucester Township, New Jersey) - Amanda Esposito and Gerard “Jerry” McManus, Republican candidates for New Jersey’s 4th Legislative District, issued a joint statement today condemning the New Jersey Democrats’ plan, backed by Assemblymen Dan Hutchison (D-4) and Cody Miller (D-4), to provide a $100 bill credit to ratepayers as a woefully inadequate response to the state’s escalating energy cost crisis. The candidates argue that this one-time relief, announced by Governor Phil Murphy and Democratic leadership, including Hutchison and Miller, fails to address the root causes of skyrocketing electric bills, which they attribute to flawed state energy policies championed by the Democratic incumbents. “Families in the 4th District are being crushed by a 17-20% rate hike, and Assemblymen Hutchison and Miller think a $100 credit is enough? It’s a Band-Aid on a crisis they helped create,” said Amanda Esposito. “Their support for aggressive electrification and the closure of reliable power plants...
