SORRY: This butterfly is more important than you, your family and your property tax bill.

Among the 50+ bills that were acted upon on Trenton this chilly Monday, Save Jerseyans?

S-939/A-2913, signed into law to designate the Black Swallowtail butterfly (see right) as our official State Butterfly.

Never mind that New Jersey was just ranked as last in the nation AGAIN for outbound migration in the same year that property taxes increased at their fastest rate in four years.

Just in case you’d forgotten, legislators went out of their way this week to remind you that you’re less important than a black-and-yellow papilio polyxenes. Unless, of course, you lead a state employee union that pays for their reelection campaigns. Then you’re flying high!
