New Jersey Governor Chris Christie said he wants to lower the state’s top income-tax rate to 6 percent from 9 percent to boost economic growth.
The Republican governor, who took office in January, said he hopes to make the tax cut before the end of his four-year term. Christie said the state economy benefited in the 1980s and 1990s, when the top rate was 6 percent.
