Congressman Gottheimer s remarks as prepared for delivery are below.
We’re feet from the George Washington Bridge, where, on a normal pre-pandemic day, 289,000 people drive in and out of Manhattan from Bergen County and from all across our state.
Many of them are our constituents, a diverse and talented workforce, who work in New York, and, soon enough, if they haven’t already, most will start driving in again to support their families and help boost a 100-million-dollar-a-day regional economy, including 8% percent of our nation’s GDP. Others, as we continue to reopen, will head in at night or over the weekends to grab dinner, go shopping, or spend a day with family and friends.
