This Saturday, and every day, I urge everyone to support our small businesses by shopping local,” said Congressman Josh Gottheimer NJ-5). “In Congress, I’m dedicated to working across the aisle to lower taxes, cut outdated and unnecessarily burdensome red tape, improve access to capital, unleash more economic opportunity, and create jobs — to continue making North Jersey a great place to live and do business.”
