Green: If Gov. Christie is Sincere about Expungement, he would Work with the Assembly

Law to reform NJ’s expungement laws was spearheaded by Assembly Democrats


(TRENTON) – Speaker Pro Tempore Jerry Green (D-Middlesex/Somerset/Union) issued the following statement on Friday chastising the governor for excluding the Assembly as he works on expungement legislation, when it was the Assembly that spearheaded the issue and initiated the law to reform the state’s expungement laws.
