Gottheimer Stands up for New Jersey Taxpayers on SALT Deductions

FAIR LAWN, N.J. –  Today, Congressman Josh Gottheimer (NJ-5) stood up against the elimination of the state and local tax (SALT) deductions alongside New Jersey Fair Law residents Denise and Baruch Gadot in Fair Lawn.

“Today, we have to stand up and defend New Jersey –  those who, once again, want New Jersey to be America’s piggy bank.  We need lower taxes and cannot afford a tax hike of $3,500 per person in Jersey by eliminating the state and local tax deduction. It’s anticompetitive and will drive people and business to other states. We can’t raise the tax burden on all of us in New Jersey, putting our jobs, businesses, and economy at risk,” said Congressman Josh Gottheimer (NJ-5).
