Earlier this month, New Jersey legislators in the state Assembly and the Senate re-introduced innovative bills that would allow:
Primary sponsors of the Assembly bills include Jack Conway and Herb Conaway. These bills are presently pending before the Assembly Labor Committee. In the Senate, the primary sponsor is Diane B. Allen. The Senate bills have been split between that body's Commerce Committee (S992) and Labor Committee (S976 and S977).
Note: Similar legislation was first introduced before the New Jersey State Legislature during the last legislative session. (See our entry of June 19, 2008).
Denizens of the Garden State should contact committee members and their state senators and assembly persons to voice support for these bills.
