A quick update from earlier today, Save Jerseyans…
After Save Jersey and a number of GOP legislators called on Asm. Bonnie Watson Coleman to quit the Bridgegate investigatory committee for calling on Chris Christie to resign on MSNBC Thursday evening… she did it on Friday night.
“As someone who has always fought for the causes of hard-working residents like those who were caught and endangered in those purposeful traffic jams, I will not stop being a vocal advocate for what I think is best for the people of our state,” read Coleman’s statement. “Therefore, I have informed Speaker Prieto that I will no longer serve on the Legislative Select Committee on Investigation. I will remain focused on promoting and advancing Democratic legislation and causes.”
She should quit in general after sponsoring the background check bill because her two young sons were in jail for armed robbery. She is putting every business owner and their employees in NJ at risk.
She never cared about her role in the investigation anyway, at least not once Rush Holt stepped down. She’s focused on throwing bombs to galvanize the base for her Democratic primary fight with Linda Greenstein. She’s probably happy to be off the committee.
