Greenstein Follows and Never Leads
Letter to the Editor of the South Brunswick Post - June 3, 2010

Linda Greenstein sponsored and voted for Kyleigh’s Law when it went through the assembly last year.

Then, when concerned parents and teens raised questions about the law, Assemblywoman Greenstein decided to sponsor a bill to do a study on the effectiveness of the law she helped put into place. Mind you, she stayed silent until those concerns were voiced in nearly every newspaper and TV channel across the state.

A week later, after it was pointed out that waiting for another study would leave teens exposed and endangered, she changed her tune yet again.

Now Assemblywoman Greenstein claims to support the repeal that others have been advocating, way before the law went into effect on May 1.

I don’t understand this. Who exactly is Assemblywoman Greenstein representing? As far as I can tell, she looks out for one person: herself.

She chases one fleeting stance after another and doesn’t dare support anything unless it will help her politically.

As an NJEA member whose union will most likely endorse Assemblywoman Greenstein for state Senate, due to her support of the NJEA’s positions, I do not feel I can trust Assemblywoman Greenstein’s word.

I hope you will join me in your support for Tom Goodwin, the Republican, instead of Democrat Linda Greenstein for state Senate.
