NEW BRUNSWICK, NJ — During NAIOP New Jersey’s recent annual Public Policy Symposium, government policy makers and commercial real estate leaders discussed steps that are being taken at both the state and federal levels to ensure New Jersey’s sustainable recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic. In his keynote remarks, Congressman Frank Pallone (D-6), chairman of the House Energy and Commerce Committee, said he is optimistic that the White House and Republican and Democratic congressional leaders will negotiate another federal economic stimulus package once Congress is back in session at the end of the month. “Unfortunately, in my opinion, we’re one of the only countries where the virus has been politicized, which makes it a difficult environment. It’s not just about the virus, it’s the economy. We need to create jobs long-term and have a revitalized infrastructure initiative.”
