  • Sent a Letter to Gov. Phil Murphy and Muoio
    NEW JERSEY GENERAL ASSEMBLY STATE HOUSE PO BOX 098 TRENTON, NEW JERSEY 08625-0098 (609) 847-3400 June 9, 2021 The Honorable Phil Murphy Office of the Governor P.O. Box 001 Trenton, NJ 08625 The Honorable Elizabeth Maher Muoio Department of the Treasury P.O. Box 002 Trenton, NJ 08625 Dear Governor Murphy and Treasurer Muoio: We cannot fathom what you are trying to hide by refusing your traditional responsibility to provide revenue updates to the Assembly Budget Committee. If it was the decision of our colleagues in the legislature, please do not demur. There are only two possibilities that come to mind: that your administration is woefully unprepared to explain how you plan to spend the newly expected money and the more than $6 billion in federal aid, or your disdain for transparency and the legislative process satiates your hunger for unilateral power. It will not be surprising when, in routine business, the budget is introduced and signed into law before anyone can carefully read it. In this consistent lack of transparency, it is clear you and your party are content. Due to your unprecedented decision, we are submitting the below questions regarding the fiscal year 2022 budget, and ask for a response within twenty-four hours that actually answers the questions. That is ample time considering these questions would have been asked directly. Please recall that Republican districts comprise over three-million state residents. Do not continue to disenfranchise them by ignoring their representatives. Questions: 1. Why were the Assembly Budget Committee hearings, scheduled on Wednesday, June 9, 2021, cancelled? 2.

Our scorecard rates each member of the New Jersey Senate and Assembly on their conservation record and actions taken to protect the environment in the Garden State. It does this by tracking how New Jersey’s 40 senators and 80 Assembly members voted on key legislation affecting air and water quality, open space, and the fight against climate change. As “the political voice for the environment,” New Jersey LCV uses its resources to elect environmental champions and support them in office while helping to defeat candidates and officeholders whose legislative priorities do not include air, water, and land protections. We empower legislators by providing background information before key environmental votes, and we hold legislators accountable for their positions and actions related to our environment.

  • Introduction Lobbying and Advocacy
    Introduction This Legislative Handbook is designed to provide guidance and assistance to representatives of the New Jersey Association of Mental Health and Addiction Agencies, Inc. (NJAMHAA) member organizations who participate in legislative activities. Specifically, the Legislative Handbook presents the Association’s legislative policy and procedures, simplifies the complexities of the legislative process, and provides an orientation to grassroots lobbying for all members. On behalf of its members, NJAMHAA meets with legislators, policy makers and business leaders in order to influence legislative, regulatory and funding decisions in ways that have the most positive outcome on its members. Through increased visibility and a stronger presence, NJAMHAA ensures that members’ concerns are expressed and that their interests are represented. This allows members the peace of mind of knowing that legislative or regulatory changes that are made will occur with their views expressed. NJAMHAA is committed to facilitating meaningful exchange both within the Association and with other industry stakeholders to achieve mutual advocacy. While NJAMHAA aggressively lobbies state and federal legislators on behalf of its members, these lawmakers need to hear from you, their local constituents, those who elect them. The louder and stronger the voice, the more impact that it has on all who hear it. Please use and refer back to this valuable resource to familiarize yourself with legislative advocacy procedures and to contact key legislators to collectively join other NJAMHAA members in advancing the cause for an improved community behavioral health system. Lobbying and Advocacy Oftentimes, the words “lobbying” and “advocacy” are used interchangeably. The legal definition of lobbying usually involves attempting to influence legislation.
