Also on Tap: A.C. Public Safety Early Retirements, Opposing Christie Mental Health & OIT Reorganizations, Revising Teen Driver Program & 12-Month Contraceptive Prescriptions
(TRENTON) – The Assembly on Monday will vote on bills to pay state workers for the early July state government shutdown; require state parks, forests and other natural and historic areas to remain open to public for seven days in any future state government shutdowns and prohibit the use of state residential property by the governor during any future state government shutdown.
Also on tap: allowing police and firefighter early retirements rather than layoffs in Atlantic City, opposing Gov. Christie’s efforts to shift mental health and addiction services as well as his plan to plan to reorganize the New Jersey Office of Information Technology, revising the state teen driver program and requiring health insurance coverage for contraceptives to include prescriptions for 12 months.
The session is scheduled to start at 10:30 a.m. and will be streamed live at:
