The Traitorous Twelve
Without the support of a small group of Republicans in the state Senate and Assembly, Governor Jon Corzine’s school spending and state aid bill would have failed. These senators and assemblymen have much to answer for having betrayed the public school students and taxpayers of New Jersey, their constituents and the Republican Party.
A tally of 41 yes votes was needed for the governor's measure to pass in the Assembly. The final vote was 41-36. In the Senate, 21 votes were needed and the bill passed the upper chamber with exactly 21 votes.
Here’s the list of the Traitorous Twelve:
All of them are unworthy of calling themselves representatives of the people and Republicans.
Senators Nicholas Asselta, Joseph Palaia, Robert Martin and Gerald Cardinale nullified the no votes cast by both assemblymen in their legislative districts. Bill Baroni and Jennifer Beck leave the Assembly on this sour note to take up new jobs in the Senate. These people are beneath contempt.
Over time, we will discover why the Traitorous Twelve voted against the best interests of the people. Nicholas Asselta’s reason was exposed today:
These people have no shame.

Yesterday, hours after Asselta cast a pivotal vote to help Gov. Jon Corzine win approval for his $7.8 billion school funding proposal, the governor approved his BPU appointment.Defeated in his bid for reelection, Asselta sold out for a $125,000-a-year state Board of Public Utilities post.
These people have no shame.

yet your the one endorsing the Asset Monetization scam?!
Republican and our suppport would be predicated on two things:
One, the bill creating the non-profit, public benefit corporation to be contingent on the passage of a constitutional amendment that requires that 100% of the proceeds from the monetization of these assets may only be used for three purposes: a) teacher pension and benefit obligations (first year amount and then specified minimum annual %), b) bonded debt (first year amount) and c) Transportation infrastructure (first year amount and then specified minimum annual %).
Two, support for the passage of the bill above first requires the passage of an affordable and equitable public school spending and state school aid program, to be presented by Republicans that will a) define the meaning of a thorough and efficient education, b) treats all children and communities equally, including the minimum and maximum % state aid for all school districts and c.) the passage of this plan as a constitutional amendment.
I can only wonder what their motivation was to support this.
Pretty! This was an extremely wonderful post. Thank you for providing this info 먹튀검증
