Eustace’s Chief of Staff Is Just like Coniglio’s





Most residents of Lodi do not know who Tim Eustace is.  He is an Assemblyman representing Lodi.  His Chief of Staff is Christopher Hillman.

The taxpayers of New Jersey pay Chris Hillman’s salary.  This was his salary in 2012.  



I find it very inappropriate that Chris Hillman was serving as Eustace’s “Campaign Treasurer” while being paid by the taxpayers of NJ to run Eustace’s legislative office.  His reports show that most campaign contributions came from firms currently doing business with the State, labor unions, and special interest groups.  He takes their money and then works on THEIR legislation.  The State contracts that these campaign contributors received speaks for itself.  The legislation that Eustace and Hillman promote speaks for itself.  The District 38 legislative office was sold to the highest bidder(s).




I also find it very unethical that Chris Hillman was using campaign funds to pay himself $1,560.00 for Verizon Wireless bills and his boss for food.  




Coniglio’s Chief of Staff, Marc Schrieks, once stated the following: “there is a complete split between Senator Coniglio’s personal, private business life and his legislative life…”  That was proven to be a lie.  


There likely is no split between Hillman’s “legislative life”, “campaign treasurer life”, and personal life either.  







“District Coordinator State Senator’s Office May 2006- January 2008”

Eustace's Chief of Staff probably worked in Coniglio's office with Marc Schrieks. If you look at Chris Hillman's Linkedin page, it’s odd that he left off the Senator's name that he worked for. Coniglio was our State Senator at that time.

Coniglio was charged in February 2008
