Kristin Corrado

Democratic Sen. Vin Gopal is joining Republican Sen. Kristin Corrado in calling for an end to testing unvaccinated teachers and school employees.

The state's continued guidance to screen for coronavirus among school staff with no symptoms no longer aligns with the updated federal COVID recommendations.

A state law enacted earlier this year bars police from polling places, to ensure residents – in particular minority ones who might feel more nervous about police interactions – aren’t discouraged from voting.

New Jerseyans who rely on home delivery and curbside pickup still have no idea how the process will work or how much more it may cost them, one lawmaker says.

"Not only does such a policy impose restrictions and undue burdens on educators, it undermines the guidelines of the CDC itself," Corrado said. "There is just no rational explanation for this policy whatsoever."

Republican Sen. Kristin Corrado said all commissioner Rob Asaro-Angelo offered was excuses when he testified before the Senate Labor Committee, and "what he should have offered was his resignation."

Democrats joined Republicans in expressing their frustration that unemployment offices and others aren't fully reopened to the public.

NJ State Senator Kristin Corrado will introduce a bill that would require every state MVC facility to fully reopen according to pre-pandemic guidance.

Students, educators, and other school staff will no longer have to wear masks starting the first week of March, Gov. Phil Murphy announced on Monday.

Introduced more than a year ago, legislation that would revive the yellow-on-blue license plate design available from the late 1970s through the early 1990s was advanced by a Senate committee this month.
