What People Are Saying
“People need to be informed of critical issues. Steve Adubato and New Jersey Capitol Report provide the means to be the public’s advocate.”

--Suze Orman, Financial Guru and Host “The Suze Orman Show” on CNBC“New Jersey Capitol Report was a great experience. Steve Adubato and Rafael Pi Roman touched upon some of the key issues critical to New Jersey citizens and cut to the core of it while offering a balanced view.”

-- Linda Bowden, Northern NJ Regional President, PNC Bank“Steve is a unique talent. He is the best in the business. There is nobody like him that asks the questions the way he does and gets people to answer in a comfortable way. He’s extraordinary.”
--Patrick Dunican, Chairman & Managing Director, Gibbons P.C.“It’s so important to have shows like New Jersey Capitol Report to cover the important New Jersey issues because we are often held captive between the New York and Pennsylvania markets.
