The responsibility of crafting a budget that is
responsible and effective is always a challenge.
That’s because the issues we face are daunting and
the goals we want to achieve are significant. I am
proud to say that we reached an agreement on a budget
that we can all embrace, that addresses our shared
priorities and will help move New Jersey forward.
Below is a link to an Op-Ed I wrote that appeared in
The Record this Sunday which outlines how this year’s
budget embodies the values of Democrats and will
serve the needs and best interests of the people of
New Jersey. Please click on the headline to view the

Sweeney: In the end, the Legislature and governor
delivered for New Jersey
Published in The Record, July 6, 2018
Last Saturday, after weeks of negotiations, the
Legislature and Gov. Phil Murphy reached agreement on
a state budget. Pundits argue over who won: the
Legislature or the governor? Let me be clear: the
people of New Jersey won.
