Bipartisan Cost Coalition Endorses Mikie Sherrill for Governor of New Jersey

From Cost Coalition advisers Terry Holt, a Republican, and Andrew Bates, a Democrat: 

“Washington’s agenda is worsening the cost crisis in America, forcing New Jersey families to pay higher and higher prices for everything from utilities to groceries to health care. Whether you’re a Republican or a Democrat, it’s undeniable that New Jerseyans need economic relief from inflationary tariffs, cuts to American energy and health care made to lower taxes for the rich, and trillions in new debt. To take on the growing affordability crisis, the bipartisan Cost Coalition was founded to support leadership that puts pocketbook issues of working families front and center. 

“After analyzing the plans of both candidates in the New Jersey governor's race, the difference between Mikie Sherrill and Jack Ciattarelli on this defining issue of affordability is enormous. Mikie Sherrill has bold ideas to use the specific powers of the governorship to make a difference that families will feel. To lower utility bills, she will counter the Washington policies that are holding back New Jersey’s energy potential. Sherrill will reduce grocery costs by rooting out price gouging and ensuring small businesses can compete with big chains. And she will cut red tape that is keeping home prices high, stop pharmacy middle-men from making drug prices even higher than they already are, and help create and keep good-paying New Jersey jobs. Sherrill has been straight with voters about her opposition to the inflationary Washington policies that are supercharging costs, including tariffs - a historic tax hike on working people - cuts to health care and clean energy, and adding trillions in new, unsustainable debt to give tax breaks to those who need them least.   

“Unfortunately, Jack Ciattarelli and his Washington backers support the Washington agenda that is driving costs and inflation up. To give Ciattarelli the benefit of the doubt, we watched the debate closely in case he produced any last-minute plans to put New Jersey’s economy first. But he gave Washington’s cost-raising record an ‘A plus.’ So the bipartisan Cost Coalition gives him an 'F.'"
