Desktop Computer Ive worked closely with the NJ delegation since the 103rd Congress. Our Republicans and Democrats have a great record of working together and voting for environmental protection. When looking at someones record, I like to say its half full rather than half-empty, but in Garretts case, the glass is completely empty. Garrett is out of step with the NJ delegation, and isnt representing the environmental views of his constituents. Voting against fuel conservation, voting to drill the Arctic Refuge, failing to support Highlands preservation and failing to support his fellow NJ Congressmans efforts to protect wildlife, gives Rep. Garrett the dubious honor of being NJs Perfect Zero on the environment, concluded Schvejda.
