Gov. Chris Christie announced that 182,000 households with seniors or disabled residents already enrolled in the federal Low Income Home Energy Assistance program, will receive an extra $100 in home cooling assistance to cope with the state’s recent heat wave. The money, part of a federal program, is scheduled to be distributed in mid-August. Christie said the help will come as a credit on utility bills or a separate check.
“It’s not going to fix the whole problem,” he said. “But it’s definitely better than not addressing the problem at all.” More in Star Ledger.
