WASHINGTON – Republican National Committee (RNC) Chairman Michael Steele released the following statement today:

“Today I join with the people of New Jersey in congratulating Governor Chris Christie on his official swearing-in as the 55th Governor of the state of New Jersey.  Governor Christie’s message of lower-taxes and less spending clearly resonated with voters in New Jersey who were looking for a solution to the failed economic leadership of the past.  It is clear that New Jerseyans are ready to move into the future under Governor Christie’s leadership.  A new day is dawning for the people of New Jersey and with this fresh start and conservative approach to governing, they have many reasons to be enthusiastic about the future.  I wish Governor Christie the best of luck and I look forward to working with him on this continued expansion of Republican leadership in coming elections this fall.”
