New Jersey Future Statement on Governor Murphy’s FY2022 Budget Address

TRENTON, February 23, 2021 —New Jersey Future Executive Director Peter Kasabach released the following statement in response to Governor Murphy’s FY2022 Budget Address:

“After a year of unprecedented challenges, it is encouraging to hear in his budget address the Governor’s commitment to smart growth values such as inclusive neighborhoods with affordable housing options, investments in transit without fare hikes, and critical upgrades to water and broadband infrastructure. Building and supporting strong neighborhoods and communities for everyone, as with the expanded Main Street program and new redevelopment and revitalization subsidies in the form of incentives, is essential for an economic comeback that makes New Jersey stronger and more equitable than before.”
