OCEAN CITY, N.J. (AP) — New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie
continues his tax-cut tour in Ocean City Wednesday.
The governor wants Democrats to commit to funding a 10 percent tax cut in
January.
Democrats say they want to be sure New Jersey has the
money first.
Christie is standing by his pronouncement that a "Jersey Comeback" has begun even though unemployment jumped to
9.6 percent in June, significantly above the 8.2 percent national average.
The Republican has been urging Democratic lawmakers to "get the hell off the
beach" to vote for tax relief.
It's the same language he used to get residents off the sand ahead of
Tropical Storm Irene last summer.
