Lonegan: It’s an absurd political stunt

Former Bogota Mayor Steve Lonegan says a charitable dedication proposal advocated by Rep. Josh Gottheimer (D-Wyckoff) is just an absurd political stunt by a liberal.  He says the “taxpayers deserve better than a two-faced politician who is a cheerleader for an agenda that will break their backs.”

“While the American people are now enjoying the fruits of the Republican agenda, Josh Gottheimer wants to bring back the disastrous Obama-Pelosi policies which failed to create jobs and delivered anemic economic growth,” said Lonegan, who is seeking the Republican nomination in New Jersey’s 5th district.  “Who is Josh Gottheimer trying to kid?

Lonegan says that thanks to Republicans and their tax relief plan, more jobs, a stronger stock market and economic growth “is right around the corner.”

“Josh Gottheimer fought tooth and nail against these tax cuts for working Americans. Now, all he can do is concoct absurd ideas that amount to nothing but a publicity stunt,” said Lonegan. “While he claims to be working for taxpayers, he’s using this issue to soften up his own constituents for the coming Phil Murphy tax-and-spend body blow.”
