LITTLE: SENIORS WILL HAVE NO BETTER FRIEND THAN I

(HIGHLANDS, October 29) - Republican Congressional challenger Anna Little focused her campaign's message on the large population of seniors residing in New Jersey's 6th Congressional District - seniors who have been disproportionately hurt by the votes cast by Frank Pallone during his 22 years in the Congress.

"All over our district, I meet seniors who are worried for the future - theirs, and their children's and grandchildren's," said Little. "They see a government taking over more and more of their decisions. They see a political class that seems no longer to care about them, despite the sacrifices they've made to allow younger generations to enjoy a lifestyle they couldn't. And they fear a government that doesn't seem to know how best to get our economy back on track.

"New Jersey seniors should know this - they'll have no better friend than I, when I go to Congress in January," continued Little.

"It was Frank Pallone, not I, who cast a vote to cut $500 billion from Medicare.

"It was Frank Pallone, not I, who cast a series of votes over the last 22 years to raise the national debt from $2.6 trillion to $13.6 trillion, and pass on a debt of more than $30,000 to every man, woman and child in this country - including our grandchildren.

"It was Frank Pallone, not I, who cast votes to put government bureaucrats between doctors and their patients - including their senior patients, who may now find themselves forced off their current health care coverage and into some new plan that doesn't provide the benefits to which they've grown accustomed.

"And it was Frank Pallone, not I, who cast vote after vote for higher taxes and more government spending - higher taxes and more spending that saps our economy, drives up the cost of living, makes New Jersey one of the least affordable states in the country, and forces many of them to become 'plane ticket grandparents' - the kind of grandparents who need to use a plane ticket to see their grandchildren, because they've been forced to move out of state for their retirements, and only see their grandchildren at the holidays, when they get on a plane to come back to New Jersey.

"On all these fronts and more, our current Congressman has failed to lead for seniors," said Little. "He has raised their taxes, borrowed their money, and put their children and grandchildren in debt. It's time we stopped that, and moved in a new direction - a direction that gives New Jersey's seniors more freedom of action, leaves more money in their pockets, and secures their ability to see the doctor of their choice.

"In four days, New Jersey will vote, and we'll have a chance to send a fresh face to Washington," said Little.

"If you think we're headed in the right direction, then Frank Pallone is your man," said Little. "But if you think we're moving in the wrong direction, if you think you're ready for a change, then I need your vote - because you cannot change Washington without changing the people we send to Washington!"

Little: Why Is Frank Pallone's Web Site Silent On Obama (Pallone) Care?

Little: Why Is Frank Pallone's Web Site Silent On Obama (Pallone) Care?

(HIGHLANDS, October 28) - Republican Congressional challenger Anna Little today maintained her campaign's focus on Frank Pallone's recent silence on his role in the passage of the government takeover of health care, frequently referred to in New Jersey's 6th Congressional District as "PalloneCare."

"Back in the spring, when he thought it was going to be popular, my opponent infamously said of the government takeover of health care, 'This is not Obama's bill. This isn't Nancy Pelosi's bill. This is MY bill,'" said Little. "But now that the public has learned more about what's in it, and it's not nearly as popular as he thought it was going to be, he's gone radio silent - why, his campaign web site's 'On the Issues' section doesn't even MENTION health care!"

"Sadly, this is not surprising," said Little. "All we've heard from Frank Pallone is distortions of my views, rather than an explanation for the votes he cast for a failed trillion-dollar stimulus package, a failed cap and trade policy that would raise everyone's electricity bills, and the government takeover of health care.

"Of course, it's perfectly understandable - if I had cast a vote to cut Medicare by $500 billion, reduce patient choice, put government bureaucrats between doctors and their patients, and raise taxes, I probably wouldn't want to draw attention to it, either.

"But that's the big difference between Frank Pallone and me - I would never have cast that vote in the first place!

"In five days, New Jersey will vote, and we'll have a chance to send a fresh face to Washington," said Little.

"If you think we're headed in the right direction, then Frank Pallone is your man," said Little. "But if you think we're moving in the wrong direction, if you think you're ready for a change, then I need your vote - because you cannot change Washington without changing the people we send to Washington!"

LITTLE TO PALLONE: WHERE ARE THE JOBS?!

LITTLE TO PALLONE: WHERE ARE THE JOBS?!

(HIGHLANDS, October 22) - Republican Congressional challenger Anna Little - responding to the release of New Jersey's unemployment figures for the month of September, showing that the state lost another 20,200 jobs, and the unemployment rate dipped two-tenths of a percent because so many working-age residents gave up on finding work and decided to leave the labor force - today asked her opponent, 22-year incumbent Frank Pallone, a simple question: "Where are the jobs?

"Mr. Pallone, today I have just one simple question for you," said Little. "Where are the jobs?!

"Today's unemployment figures continue the disturbing trend we've seen over the last 20 months - New Jersey continues to lose jobs," said Little. "In the month of September, New Jersey lost ANOTHER 20,200 jobs.

"That's the worst jobs report in 18 months," continued Little. "Not since March of 2009 has a New Jersey jobs report been this bad.

"Since the official end of the recession in June 2009 - well more than a year ago - New Jersey has LOST 62,400 jobs. It's a sad state of affairs when the government deems a recession officially 'over,' but we continue to lose jobs.

"Worse, the unemployment rate in September declined from 9.6 percent to 9.4 percent - not because more people found work, but because more working-age residents have been out of work so long that they GAVE UP on finding work, and removed themselves from the job market," continued Little.

"That's a sad, sad commentary on the failure of the Pelosi-Pallone strategy. And it's not what Frank Pallone and Nancy Pelosi promised when they rammed through their massive trillion-dollar 'stimulus' package - they promised, if you'll recall, that unemployment wouldn't go higher than 8 percent.

"The best thing the government can do is to lower tax rates and reduce regulation, and create an environment in which the entrepreneurs and job-creators in our nation will put their capital to work for all of us," continued Little. "Instead, for the last 20 months we've gone in exactly the opposite direction. Nancy Pelosi and Frank Pallone have made clear their determination to raise taxes on the job-creating class, and have made clear their determination to keep borrowing money to pay for more failed 'stimulus' programs.

"It's time for a change in direction.

"Remember, you cannot change Washington without changing the people we send to Washington!"
