Andrzejczak and his other running mates Assemblymen Matt Milam and Bruce Land lost their re-election bids back on November 5th. The new Sen.-elect, Mike Testa Jr, is due to be sworn in on Dec 5th.
Testa, who is the republican state senator-elect for the 1st Legislative District, has already spoken out about the proposed S-4168 bill by saying that “in typical Trenton fashion legislators have neglected our Wildwood boardwalk” and that “he doesn’t to rush a bill that would raise gas taxes.”
Prior to this bill another one was rejected by New Jersey Governor Phil Murphy. That bill would have fully funded the Wildwood Boardwalk repair without effecting taxes.
