Honorable Phil Murphy

Governor of the State of New Jersey
PO. Box 001

Trenton, NJ 08625

Dear Governor Murphy:

1 very much welcome your correspondence on the State budget.

From my read, you recognize that the Legislature will approve a budget that retains your
priorities, but also makes important investments in higher education, extraordinary special
education and maternal health care for new mothers, among other needs and investments.

If you live up to your letter, we will have a budget in place well before the deadline and the
Legislature will have time to evaluate any of your line?item vetoes, in case we need to override

them.

Sincerely,

 



Steve Sweeney
Senate President
