AGP Executive Report

Last update: 10 hours ago

State Budget: New Jersey lawmakers passed a $60.7B budget, and Gov. Mikie Sherrill is set to sign it—an “affordability” plan that keeps major school aid and pension payments while narrowing property-tax relief for seniors. Healthcare & Rights: The Legislature advanced new protections for reproductive and transgender healthcare providers and patients, creating a new crime for interfering with care. Immigration & Courts: A federal judge let states’ case against Meta over alleged child-addiction claims move forward toward trial. Politics: Rep. Tom Kean Jr. returned to Congress after a months-long absence, saying he was hospitalized and diagnosed with depression. Public Safety/Community: A Paramus middle school yearbook reportedly included a Hitler baby photo; officials pulled yearbooks and are working with law enforcement. Economy & Jobs: International Paper is closing its Barrington facility, laying off 126 workers. World Cup in NJ: Local bars and restaurants are leaning into World Cup crowds, and the final is set for East Rutherford.
