Rep. Frank LoBiondo

Rep. Frank LoBiondo, R-2nd, can no longer be considered a representative of all southern New Jersey voters. He and Rep. James Saxton, R-3rd, voted to pass a $39 billion budget-cutting bill that will cut Medicaid benefits and student loans. The bill passed in a close vote of 216-214.Once again, those affected by the budget cuts are middle-class families whose children will need student loans and those on limited income who need Medicaid benefits. You might want to remember this when you go to the polls in November.
