AFP takes Debt message to Wall Street Lonegan Protests Moody's Too-High Rating of "Junk" New Jersey Contract Bonds Americans for Prosperity Says Rating Begs Another Fannie-Freddie Catastrophe WASHINGTON -- Americans for Prosperity New Jersey Director Steve Lonegan held a news conference today to protest the irresponsibly high rating of risky New Jersey contract bonds by Moody's Investment Service. Lonegan was joined by a busload of New Jersey taxpayers and a giant ATM machine, designed to illustrate that taxpayers shouldn't be treated like an instant cash machine when politicians run out of money. Following the news conference, Lonegan delivered a letter to Moody's Investment Service CEO Raymond W. McDaniel Jr., urging the company to lower its rating and thus stop enabling the state of New Jersey from plunging taxpayers further into debt. The high rating given to New Jersey's so-called "contract debt," which is not backed by the full faith and credit clause of the state, begs heavy losses for investors similar to the recent Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac crisis. The letter asserts that New Jersey contract debt should accurately reflect the substantial risk of default it carries: The practice of referring to these bonds as revenue bonds is highly misleading, because often—and specifically in the case of the pending $3.9 billion bond offering for school construction bonds—there is no revenue source other than appropriations by future legislatures, which cannot be bound contractually. The major bond insurers face daunting financial uncertainty, and the Financial Guaranty Insurance Company, which insures many New Jersey EDA bonds, has already been downgraded below investment-grade. There is no guarantee, despite the millions of taxpayer dollars spent on bond insurance, that anything other than the political whims of future legislatures stands behind these bonds. Lonegan filed suit Monday against New Jersey to block a $3.9 billion borrowing scheme from being pushed through without voter approval. Article 8 of the state constitution bars the state from incurring debt of more than $3.2 million without voter approval. However, during the past 25 years the state has avoided most referendums by creating separate entities, like the Economic Development Authority, to borrow the money. Eight years ago Lonegan first filed suit to stop the practice of issuing so-called "contract debt." In a narrow 3-4 decision, The state Supreme Court permitted then-Governor Christie Whitman's bond issue, but required a disclaimer be added to contract debt noting that the debt was not backed by the full faith and credit of the state. "Gov. Jon Corzine has repeatedly told voters that the state is facing a 'debt crisis,' yet Moody's continues to rate contract bonds as if the state of New Jersey has to make good on them," said Lonegan. "In fact, as the courts have affirmed, contract bonds are not backed by the full faith and credit of the state. Just like with Fannie and Freddie, Moody's is assuming paper is good paper without actually looking at what will happen if there is an inability to pay.

Obama Lectures Americans to Give Up SUVs, Then Hops in One In May, Sen. Barack Obama told Americans that they can't continue to drive their SUVs and expect the rest of the world to approve. His policy positions -- like higher carbon taxes and no new drilling for American oil -- are designed to drive up gas prices and push Americans away from the SUV. At the same time, he enjoys the safety and security of his own huge Chevy Suburban SUV. Tags: barack obama afp americans for prosperity global warming climate carbon tax suv

Tim Phillips Opens the Taxpayer Rally in Trenton The New Jersey Statehouse steps overflowed with hundreds of New Jersey taxpayers saying "enough is enough" to out-of-control government at an Americans for Prosperity rally led by long-time Mayor Steve Lonegan. AFP President Phillips addressed the crowd of citizens, who came from every corner of New Jersey to rally against higher taxes and the outrageous spending habits in Trenton. Turning up the grassroots heat on big-spending, big-government lawmakers won historic ballot victories in New Jersey last year against higher taxes and more debt. Increasing pressure from taxpayers will permanently kill Governor Corzine's schemes for taxpayer-funded housing, toll hikes, and merging small towns. The rally was followed by AFP Foundation's Defending the American Dream Summit. Tags: Tim Phillips Americans for Prosperity New Jersey Corzine tax taxes
