In light of New Jersey Gov. Phil Murphy’s considering Republican calls to conduct an updated audit of NJ Transit, Senate Republican Leader Anthony M. Bucco is calling for the formation of a bipartisan coalition to set politics aside and address NJ Transit’s ongoing structural and operational issues.
“It’s encouraging to see a growing coalition of Democrats joining Republican legislators’ calls to conduct hearings and address NJ Transit’s constant failures,” Bucco, R-Boonton, said. “Recognizing the urgency of the situation is a good first step, but New Jerseyans desire action. It’s time we set our politics aside and work together to deliver the reliable transit system our constituents deserve.
“Our constituents didn’t elect us to sit around and play political theater, they elected us to work together and solve problems for the Garden State,” Bucco added.
