New Jersey is seeking a credit line worth $2.25 billion, The Wall Street Journal reports. The bridge loan is likely to be granted by JP Morgan Chase.
The loan will cover payment of bills by the state in the new fiscal year beginning July 1. Earlier in 2009, New Jersey had secured a $2 billion credit line, but did not utilize the loan due to a surge in back taxes.
