Environmental Group To Spend $130k In Governor's Race

TRENTON, N.J. (AP) — An environmental group in New Jersey said Wednesday that it will spend $130,000 to help the wealthy Democratic front-runner in the race for governor, who has come under attack for his investments in pipeline companies. The New Jersey League of Conservation Voters Victory Fund told the Associated Press that it's pouring the cash into digital and mail campaigns to back Phil Murphy. Murphy's personal financial disclosure forms filed with state officials show he has holdings in PSEG and Spectra, which are stakeholders in the proposed natural gas PennEast pipeline. Drew Tompkins, a spokesman for the league's victory fund, said the group believes Murphy will stand up to proposed White House cuts to environmental protection.
