The Record is Clear: Everyday Costs Have Skyrocketed Under Lombardo

*

From health care to gas to groceries and rent, everything has gotten more expensive under Lombardo's failed leadership while he's focused on being Donald Trump's doormat.

Creepy Congressman John McGuire keeps defending his vote in favor of child marriage. McGuire previously said the reason for his disturbing vote (he was the only member of the State Senate, Republican or Democrat, to vote no) was that "we need more families" and that "if a young man anda young girl get pregnant, they need to have a marriage" (yes, really).

Now, in a new interview with WWBT this week, McGuire claims he voted against outlawing child marriage "because you can join the United States military, go overseas and die, but you can't marry your fiance who might get your benefits back home if she's pregnant."

HUH?!?

WWBT: "Perriello has a number of ads out right now.... But one in particular, he calls into question your State Senate vote over raising the marriage age in Virginia. Talk to me about your vote on that. You were the only Republican in the state senate who did that..."

MCGUIRE: "The reason we voted no is because you can join the United States military, go overseas and die, but you can't marry your fiance who might get your benefits back home if she's pregnant. So I asked for that exception.

"The Democrats said no, and imagine that, you can die for your country at 17, but you can't marry your fiance and she get your benefits. I asked for an exception. They didn't do it. There's already protections. He's using hyperbole, and he's exaggerating."

DCCC Spokesperson Eli Cousin:

"John McGuire keeps making up different reasons to try and explain away the fact that he voted in favor of allowing grown men to marry children, and each explanation is somehow worse than the last. Virginians should vote this creep out of office."

Message & data rates may apply. Text STOP to end. Text HELP for help. Terms of Service and Privacy Policy. The Bergen Record Editorial Board officially endorsed Congresswoman Nellie Pou for reelection. The Editorial Board makes the case for Pou clear: "Pou'scommand of policy, knowledge of the district and decades of legislative experience make her better prepared to represent its constituents in Washington."

The endorsement comes as Republicans have officially triaged the race- cutting off funding from Republican candidate Rosemary Pino. It's an acknowledgment that they failed miserably to recruit a serious candidate in the race.

Read the Editorial Board's endorsement for yourself:

U.S. Rep. Nellie Pou's command of policy, knowledge of the district and decades of legislative experience make her better prepared to represent its constituents in Washington.

If reelected, Pou says her priorities would include ending President Trump's tariffs and restoring funding for Affordable Care Act insurance subsidies, Medicaid and SNAP food assistance. Republicans cut a combined $1.2 trillion in expected spending on those programs in last year's massive tax and spending law, helping explain why Pou calls Trump's second term "a catastrophic failure."

...We believe Pou is better prepared for the job. In interviews with the editorial board of The Record and NorthJersey.com, she demonstrated a stronger grasp of federal policy and district concerns, including flooding and aging water systems. Pino... relied more heavily on broad themes than on specific policy proposals.

Immigration is especially important in this diverse district, and both candidates described the fear and disruption caused by the Trump administration's mass-deportation policy. Pou said immigration laws should be enforced but that ICE's heavy-handed tactics have "gone far beyond reasonable."

... Pino's central argument -- that she could persuade Trump and congressional Republicans to compromise on Medicaid, immigration enforcement and other priorities -- is unconvincing without a clearer account of what concessions she would seek or how she would win them.

The 9th District needs an advocate who understands both the pressures on its residents and the nuances of working on Capitol Hill. Nellie Pou offers the more developed agenda, deeper legislative experience and a stronger command of local concerns. We recommend voters send her back to Washington.
