Pallone Welcomes Christie

January 19, 2010
Trenton - Congressman Frank Pallone, Jr. issued the following statement on Tuesday to congratulate the newly-inaugurated Governor, Chris Christie and to pledge to work together for New Jersey:

"I want to congratulate Governor Chris Christie and Lieutenant Governor Kim Guadagno as they take the reins of leadership in New Jersey. They have deeply-rooted challenges before them that will require a strong effort by everyone working together in a cooperative, non-partisan way.

"The campaign is behind us now. We all care about the well being of New Jersey and the best way to make progress is teamwork. We all stand to gain if we succeed and we all will suffer if we don't. I pledge to work with Governor Christie, Senate President Sweeney and Assembly Speaker Oliver to do what we can to help.
