Union Beach: Calling Leigh-Ann Bellew a “fighter for the elderly,� James L. Martin, President of the 60 Plus Association, a national non-partisan senior citizens group presented Leigh-Ann Bellew, the group’s Honorary Guardian of Seniors’ Rights Award.
Martin cited Bellew’s support for senior friendly issues such as repealing the 1993 tax on Social Security benefits, lifting the limit on what seniors can earn without penalty, repealing the Death Tax and especially her support for abolishing a 108 year-old tax imposed to help finance the 1898 Spanish American War when telephones were a luxury item.

Martin said, “I am pleased to present this award to Leigh-Ann Bellew. She will be a tax cutter, protecting the pocket books of senior citizens. 60 Plus calls on nearly 4.5 million seniors for support nationally, with over 10,000 in New Jersey’s District 06, so I believe I can speak on behalf of seniors when I say that they can count on Leigh-Ann Bellew. Clearly, seniors will have no finer friend in Congress than Leigh-Ann Bellew.�
The 60 Plus Association, whose national spokesman is Pat Boone, is a 15 year old, non-partisan organization that is committed to senior friendly issues and publishes a quarterly magazine, Senior Voice. 60 Plus has been called “an increasingly influential senior citizen’s group and can be researched at www.60plus.org.
“I am honored to be the recipient of the Guardian of Seniors’ Rights Award from such a prestigious organization,� said Bellew, who believes that we owe our seniors a great deal.
“The seniors of the 6th district deserve better than they’re getting. They raised their families here while struggling through enormous rises in property taxes and costs of living. It was under their watch that the 6th district saw its greatest growth. Today’s seniors are the ones responsible for the current high quality of life that the next generation enjoys,� she said.
