Buono Takes Her Economic Plan on the Road

New Jersey's Democratic candidate for governor is promoting her economic plan.

Barbara Buono will be joined by Democratic U.S. Senate candidates Frank Pallone and Rush Holt when she speaks with Trenton residents on Thursday.

Buono says Gov. Chris Christie's economic policies favor the wealthy over the middle- and working-class. She says his administration has failed to stabilize property taxes or curb New Jersey's higher-than-average unemployment.

Christie says Buono voted 154 times to raise taxes and fees during her time in the Legislature.

The governor has offered generous tax subsidies to attract corporations to the state and keep those already here from leaving.
