New Jersey Governor Chris Christie Vetoes Aid for Ailing Atlantic CityCasinos

Gov. Chris Christie speaking at a town hall meeting in Iowa.
Chris Christie, New Jersey Governor and Republican presidential candidate, vetoed a financial aid package for Atlantic City on Tuesday.

"Atlantic City government has been given over five years and two city administrations to deal with its structural budget issues and excessive spending," said Christie spokesman Kevin Roberts. "It has not. The governor is not going to ask the taxpayers to continue to be enablers in this waste and abuse."

Iowans and members of CAGE have visited with Governor Christie numerous times on his position on the expansion of gambling.  Let's use common sense when planning the development of any new casinos and thank you Governor Christie for keeping taxpayers money in their pockets.
