| Governor Jon S. Corzine's State of the State Address
Finance
-- Budget plan has four elements:
One … freeze spending now.
Two … limit future spending to revenue growth.
Three … capture the enterprise value of our tollways to pay down debt and make capital investments.
Four … limit borrowing by requiring voter authorization.
-- Passage of the School Funding Reform Act represents a significant shift away from the ad hoc, patchwork system of state aid that has been used over the past decade. The new law replaces a flawed system with an equitable, balanced, and nonpartisan formula that addresses the needs of all students, regardless of where they live. This formula puts the needs of all children on an equal footing, and will give them the educational resources they need for success.
