MANDELBLATT STATEMENT ON HOUSE SPENDING BILL
WESTFIELD, NJ – Today the Republican majority in House of Representatives passed a 2018 spending bill that cuts training for teachers, cuts $3.3 billion in student financial aid, attacks vital women’s health programs, cuts funding to protect the environment, and will cause health care premiums to skyrocket.
“Once again, Rep. Lance has shown that his allegiance is to his party bosses in Washington and not to our communities here in New Jersey. With one vote, Leonard Lance has turned his back on education, women’s health, clean air and water, and affordable health care. As a lifelong New Jerseyan, I am tired of our representative in Washington paying lip service to us during election season, only to turn his back on us once he is back in Washington.”
