New Jersey's Budget is a crisis of representation
I wrote about the New Jersey Budget process, and the larger handling of Bills in Trenton in the New Jersey Monitor.
The system is clearly broken, but the challenge is getting those who broke it — and benefit from its brokenness — to fix it. While voters are effectively locked out of the process, every state Assembly member and senator has the power to force change. It’s not about party, it’s about whether you were elected to represent — or to rule over.
