CC Freeholder Director Cappelli Takes Exception to Critical Comments Made by Gov. Murphy

CAMDEN CITY, NJ (January 15, 2019)Camden County Freeholder Director Lousis J. Cappelli Jr., is upset over Governor Murphy's remarks in his recent State of the State address.  His prepared statement is below. 

 

Disappointingly, I watched the Governor address the legislature wasting time and energy to relitigate the same subject matter he brought up last week. Unfortunately, these critical comments ring hollow compared with his actions by trying to give away billions of dollars in incentives to some of the richest people in the world. Since he has taken office the Governor has employed this same tax incentive program to the tune of more than $5 billion to entice Jeff Bezos, the richest man on the planet, to move a part of the Amazon corporation to Newark and another undisclosed $200 million award the Murphy administration approved to a wealthy international pharmaceutical company, AmerisourceBergen less than a year ago. His actions and his words do not seem to be following the same pattern and his ad lib anger seems to be more theater than real scorn.
