Governor Corzine's Statement on President Obama's Address to Congress
TRENTON - Governor Jon S. Corzine today issued the following statement regarding President Obama's address on healthcare to Congress:

"President Obama hit all the right notes tonight in detailing his plan to finally make health care reform a reality in Washington.  His insistence that any new bill include required coverage for vital preventive care like mammograms is right for our nation and for New Jersey's families.  As the President said ‘that makes sense, it saves money, and it saves lives.'

"Under my administration, we've extended coverage to over 90,000 more children.  Now, with a real partner in President Obama, we'll make stable, secure and affordable health care a reality for all New Jerseyans."
