RGA Statement on Gov. Christie's Decision to Seek Re-Election

Republican Governors Association Chairman Bobby Jindal issued the following statement today on New Jersey Governor Chris Christie’s decision to seek a second term:

“Chris Christie exemplifies the type of results-oriented leadership New Jersey residents expect from their governor. Before Governor Christie took office, Trenton was broken and state government was in disarray. Now, the New Jersey comeback is underway because Governor Christie has shown an ability to achieve major reforms and get things done in a bipartisan manner. He’s closed an $11 billion deficit without a tax hike, capped property taxes and enacted historic education and pension reforms.  Thanks to his bold leadership, Governor Christie is well-positioned to secure a second term and continue the progress New Jersey has made since he took office.”
