Despite clear opposition from citizens all across the state, outgoing Governor Corzine used his last day in office to pass a series of bills into law that will have a devastating impact on victims and their families. As your Assemblyman, I will do everything I can to amend these awful laws and stand up for victims’ rights in New Jersey.

Our petition received close to 400 signatures from constituents who opposed these bills, yet outgoing Governor Corzine chose to sign them anyway. What a disgraceful legacy!

I look forward to attending incoming Governor Chris Christie’s Inaugural events today, which will mark a new era of integrity in government–a refreshing change after Jon Corzine’s actions on his last day as governor.

To Rosemarie D’Alessandro, Tony & Alice Montelaro, and all of the families who will be negatively impacted by these new laws, my thoughts and prayers are with you. I pledge to do everything I can to put forth legislation that will keep dangerous murderers and pedophiles like the ones who killed your children behind bars where they belong.
