TRENTON, NJ – Governor Phil Murphy wants to ban gas-powered cars. He’s looking into banning gas-powered appliances and outdoor equipment, according to sources within the Democrat Party. He has a radical agenda to push the state into a state of total dependence on solar and wind energy.
Now, one senator says that the push, which will involve billions of dollars of public investment, will ultimately raise energy prices in the state under the banner of ‘clean energy’.
That increase in energy cost will have negative effects on the lower and middle classes living paycheck to paycheck in the state.
Expressing concern over Governor Phil Murphy’s green energy plan, Senator Anthony M. Bucco has warned that the high costs associated with the initiative could have devastating consequences for an increasing number of New Jersey residents.
This follows the release of a new report indicating that more households are now living paycheck to paycheck, leaving them vulnerable to financial strain.
“Sadly, the United Way’s latest report is yet more proof that millions of New Jersey families are living paycheck to paycheck,” said Bucco (R-25). “When nearly four in ten New Jersey households cannot afford basic necessities like housing, child care, food, and clothing, it should be clear that the higher costs that will come with the governor’s extreme energy plan will be devastating.”
