Leftists oppose construction and then bemoan rising rents and increasing homelessness.

What is real? What dangers are you talking about? Be specific...

Climate change (formerly global warming) is not man made change.

Solar variations, cycles of weather and other natural factors have been true since tens of thousands of years ago, long before modern man’s machines.

We MUST get that to the American public. Schools teach tots to help “the Earth” from the first days of school. Un-brainwash them.

North Carolina, Georgia, Florida and Pennsylvania will benefit from these land use regulations. The proposals will decrease housing stock in New Jersey, thereby decreasing the pool of available workers who will be priced out of decent affordable housing. This will discourage companies from moving to New Jersey and encourage a departure of businesses. Liberal state leaders tend to forget that the U.S. is a huge common market,and that people will flee the conditions socialistic and permissive policies create.

Better that this nonsense be done at the state level than the federal level, at least.

Perhaps they can try something more productive like cutting off their noses to spite their faces first as a trial

BINGO! Another excuse to require some new/special inspections, certifications, licenses, etc. The only GREEN in this deal is foldable.

4 walls, a roof. Double plane windows, insulated attic, a screen door, a window fan, fireplace, central heating and AC.

That’s a house ready for all 4 seasons of climate change.

Ah, yes. There will be plenty of opportunities for graft and picking winners and losers. All in good fun.

Don't be silly...laws are for the little people...

Just wait until the mob run construction unions figure out how much their $$$$ cut will be impacted. Knee replacements will skyrocket...

Maybe they want to stop construction in NJ for fear of bodies showing up?.
