Carmelo Garcia talks New Jersey Transportation Trust Fund fiscal crisis

Assemblyman Carmelo Garcia (D-33) sat down with Hudson County View at his Hoboken office to discuss the fiscal crisis the New Jersey Transportation Trust Fund is facing.

Assemblyman Garcia started off by giving some background on the situation, including proposals that have been put forth to fix the transportation fund’s finances.

Garcia said he didn’t think raising the gas tax would hurt hybrid gas station-convenience stores that attract consumers to cross state lines.

Finally, Garcia talked about what was being done on the spending side to help make the transportation fund fiscally sustainable to protect taxpayers.
