Mikie Sherrill attended a community meet-and-greet in Jackson at the home of Pinny Bak, meeting with local business owners, organization directors and community liaisons. Tuition costs were among the topics discussed, including the federal Tuition Tax Credit included in the recently passed federal bill, which requires states to participate. Ralph Zucker, chairman of Agudath Israel of NJ, urged Sherrill to opt New Jersey into the program, emphasizing the financial strain tuition places on many families. Healthcare was also discussed, with Sherrill describing the system as being in a “free fall” and “not sustainable.” She referenced an estimated 150,000 to 300,000 people being removed from Medicaid and said she has been tasked with examining how healthcare can be provided more efficiently and at lower cost. ‎Click the link to join the OTN Community👇
