N.J. Unemployment Drops to 9%

Bramnick Celebrates Jobs Numbers; How Will Democrats React?

BramnickI’ll be interest to see what Barbara Buono has to say about this, Save Jerseyans.

Assemblyman Jon Bramnick (R-Union, Somerset and Morris) is celebrating new job numbers from the United States Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) showing a 0.3-point dip to 9% from February:

New Jersey’s economy continues to rebound. Businesses are again creating jobs because they have confidence that our state is on the right track. Now is the time for tax relief. The governor’s proposed tax cut for residents will further enhance the state’s economic momentum and create more opportunities for growth.”

New Jersey’s private sector employers added 10,400 new workers in March 2013.

Will Sen. Buono celebrate the news, too? Or will she say it’s not good enough? Criticism which I never heard her offer when Jon Corzine or Barack Obama were seeking reelection in rough economies? New Jersey’s unemployment rate reached 9.7% in October 2009 after a full year of Obama and Pelosi’s policies and four years of Jon Corzine’s foolishness; by that comparative measure, Chris Christie is performing much better than his Democrat contemporaries, particularly the current occupant of 16000 Pennsylvania Avenue.
