New Jersey LCV Statement on Governor Murphy’s 2020 State of the State Address

TRENTON, NJ- Ed Potosnak, Executive Director of New Jersey League of Conservation Voters, released the following statement today regarding Governor Murphy’s 2020 State of the State Address for his second year in office:

“It is clear from today’s speech, Governor Phil Murphy, the ‘Greenest Governor in America,’ is continuing to make the environment a top priority in his administration. With an irresponsible deregulatory agenda underway in Washington, the accomplishments of the past year led by Governor Murphy have been key in keeping New Jersey’s environment, economy and communities healthy and thriving. His actions on holding polluters accountable and igniting thousands of good local jobs in the offshore wind industry have earned him an ‘A’ on his midterm assessment. We look forward to continuing to working with Governor Murphy and his administration on issues like protecting clean drinking water and ending diversions to the Clean Energy Fund.”
