Facing anger and tears at town hall, Phil Murphy vows to fix N.J.’s school funding woes
The town hall crowd showed up Wednesday night in Willingboro to lambaste Gov. Phil Murphy over how New Jersey will dole out aid to public schools in his first state budget proposal.

Let’s “Show Murphy The Door” during our next Governor’s Election
When the grinning nitwit says he’s “going to fix this” does that mean he’s going to do away with the outrageous Abbott funding where 60% of the state’s school funding goes to 31 school districts? Whatever he does you know the Suburban towns will get hurt by it. I have to laugh though at the quote from the woman that they voted for him because he promised a stronger and fairer New Jersey. What fairytale has she been reading? Democrats only know how to dump money into urban areas to protect their voting blocks and that’s it. Nothing stronger or fairer about that
Very well-put. If we could only drop the words” fairer” and “ funding” and “grants” from our political discourse, we might be on the road to just a tad less taxpayer robbery, more and more each year, in this ridiculous place!
Here’s what Murphy means when he says he will make things “fairer.” He will confiscate the money of hardworking people and businesses, you know, the productive members of society, and will give it to those who he feels he needs votes from. He is a disaster. Work hard for Republicans in November – it’s our only hope
