REPORT: STRUCTURAL DEFICIT SAME AS WHEN CHRISTIE BECAME GOVERNOR

A new report by NJ.com says the structural deficit in the state is no different than when Gov. Chris Christie took office. The report obtained numbers from the Office of Legislative Services. The cost to fully fund schools, pensions, transportation projects and more would be over $10 billion according to the numbers released in the story. Christie acknowledged the structural deficit when he first came into office but later said they were “fake” numbers.
