Tonight on NJ Spotlight News, Governor Mikie Sherrill took action on a campaign issue she promised to reform as Governor - affordable housing. Sherrill signed an Executive Order, what she calls a whole-of-government approach to increase access and affordability for residents who need housing.   Plus, World Cup costs - from ticket prices to transit, will the games be an economic boon or bust for the state?
