NJ Politics 

  • NJ congressmen sitting on PACs of cash With the next election more than
    a year off, NJ’s 13-member congressional delegation is ready with $14.2 M in
    campaign cash
    Bergen Record

     

  • Turnpike deal needs a super salesman Governor Corzine has a long road
    ahead to win an already skeptical public over to the idea of selling or leasing state assets like the NJ Turnpike. So say observers and veterans of similar campaigns
    Bergen Record

NJ Environment 

  • Suit seeks to void state Highlands act A lawsuit filed in Superior Court by a
    major housing developer seeks to invalidate the state Highlands preservation act
    on the grounds that it blocks the construction of affordable housing
    Star-Ledger
     

  • NJ losing edge in recycled plastic industry it pioneered While sales of
    plastic lumber continue to increase nationwide, the industry is on the verge of
    collapse in NJ, the state that pioneered the technology. Polywood Inc., which had
    been the state's lone producer of plastic wood, went bankrupt last year. And the
    Center for Advanced Polymer Materials is hanging by a thread
    Star-Ledger  

PA Environment

  • They Came, They Stayed, They Conquered For several years, foresters and entomologists have watched with horror - and dread - as a half-inch green bug—the
    Emerald Ash Borer—spread outward from Detroit, leaving 25 million dead ash trees
    behind. Now, the invasive species has reached Pennsylvania Inquirer

     
  • DEP fines power plant for pollution The owners of a coal-fired power plant will
    pay a $200,000 fine and modify a wastewater treatment system after polluting waterways
    in Indiana County, DEP officials say AP

PA Politics 

  • PA legislators close in on budget The state budget for fiscal 2007-08 is now 16
    days late, but the House and the Senate are finally moving quickly to correct that situation Post-Gazette  Inquirer

  • Gun-control bill passes The legislature last night passes a gun-control bill advocated
    by Philadelphia lawmakers, a notable feat in a state so strong on the right to bear arms
    and so hostile to the city's efforts to regulate them Inquirer 

New York/Nation/World

  • Politics, pollution collide in NYC Plan A proposed ''congestion pricing'' toll system to reduce traffic and pollution will be too expensive, its array of cameras for enforcement will threaten civil liberties, and downtown businesses will shrivel. New York City, 2007? Try London 2002 NY Times
