A truly bad day for N.J.

[richard burch]

Mr. Burch,

Many thanks for your email.

As you may be aware, all Assembly Members and Senators representing
Bergen County in the Legislature met the afternoon of the release of the
Commission's report earlier this week. We agreed unanimously that
support of the report's conclusions, especially as they addressed the
issue of the Meadowlands, would severely undermine efforts to revitalize
northern New Jersey, increase employment and negatively affect our
common efforts to make the Meadowlands a true economic engine for the
state, and particularly North Jersey.

I greatly appreciate your support and kind words. Please know that I
join you in your concern and will speak vociferously on the subject in
support of the 36th District and the entire state of New Jersey.

I look forward to speaking with you in the future, and appreciate your
time in writing.

Gary Schaer, Assemblyman
36th Legislative District
