  • A Historical Timeline 1970S and Before
    NJ Election Law Enforcement Commission- A Historical Timeline By Joseph Donohue, Deputy Director (Updated 10/2/17) 1970s and Before October 16, 1964- Governor Richard Hughes enacts New Jersey’s first lobbying law (Chapter 207). It requires any lobbyist who makes $500 or more in three months or spends that much to influence legislation to register with the Secretary of State. Trenton attorney John Heher, representing American Mutual Insurance Alliance of Chicago, becomes the state’s first registered lobbyist.1 New Jersey Education Association, historically one of the most powerful lobbyists in the capitol, registers for the first time on December 15, 1964.2 September 1, 1970- The interim report of the bipartisan New Jersey Election Law Revision Commission concludes “stringent disclosure requirements on every aspect of political financing must be imposed and enforce at every election level….If there were full public disclosure and publication of all campaign contributions and expenditures during a campaign, the voters themselves could better judge whether a candidate has spent too much.” It recommends creation of a 5-member Election Law Enforcement Commission and a tough enforcement strategy: “withhold the issuance of a certificate of election to a candidate who has not complied with the provisions of this act.”3 November 13, 1971- A new lobbying law (Chapter 183) takes effect, repealing the 1964 act and transferring all jurisdiction to the Attorney General. It requires lobbyists to wear badges in the Statehouse for the first time and file quarterly reports that list the bills they are supporting or opposing. April 7, 1972- Federal Election Campaign Act of 1971 requires disclosure of campaign contributions and expenditures for federal candidates.4 June 17, 1972- Break-in occurs at the Democratic National Committee headquarters at the Watergate office complex in Washington, DC.

  • The Women's Project Resource Guide.Pdf
    THE WOMEN’S PROJECT HEALTH RESOURCE GUIDE The Women’s Project is funded by Providing court-involved women with excellence in integrated healthcare and employment services. 1 Women in prison have long suffered because prisons and jails have often been designed by men for men. In addition, women’s healthcare—as applies to medical, behavioral, including mental health and addiction, and particularly OB/GYN—has often been ignored at best or at worst been a source of maltreatment and malfeasance. We are most grateful to the strong leadership and support of Senate President Stephen Sweeney and Assembly Speaker Craig Coughlin or their sponsorship and ongoing support of the Women’s Reentry Commission. Thank you to Governor Murphy for his commitment to reentry, supporting legislative enactments that expand reentry accountability, and providing for greater prisoner releases during the Public Health Emergency. Particularly, we are indebted to the members of the Commission, who have steered The Women’s Project to today’s resource directory, integrated healthcare delivery system, and navigation & case management referral. Through the clear and powerful support of women’s state legislative leadership, the Women’s Reentry Commission Report was issued as a critical pathway toward improving the conditions for women in prison and upon reentry. The Women’s Project is an outgrowth of that report, specifically answering the need for integrated women’s healthcare. The Resource Guide provides a comprehensive survey of medical, mental health, and addiction treatment services in each of the eight (8) New Jersey Reentry Corporation county sites. Working with the leadership of The Women’s Reentry Commission, NJRC case management staff, and our women’s health navigators, our goal is to provide the best healthcare for women leaving incarceration and reentering the general community.

Kean MADISON, NJ — The Shakespeare Theatre of New Jersey is proud to announce that it will be naming its innovative, behind-the-scenes support facility in honor of Former Governor Thomas H. Kean, who has served as the Theatre’s Honorary Chair for over three decades. Located at 3 Vreeland Road in Florham Park, the building will be named The Thomas H. Kean Theatre Factory: The Education, Production and Administrative Center for The Shakespeare Theatre of New Jersey. Governor Kean’s unparalleled record of advocacy and support for the arts, artists, and arts education throughout the region over many decades, and his deep commitment to emerging young talent inspired The Shakespeare Theatre leadership to ask Governor Kean’s permission to name their groundbreaking workplace in his honor. Governor Kean has graciously agreed to lend his name to the building. Governor Kean said, ''As a lifetime supporter of the arts, I am excited to join my name to this unique project. This ‘Theatre Factory’ will continue to be a center where Artistic Director, Bonnie J. Monte, and her team create and assemble theatrical magic. It is an honor to be included by name in this collaborative artistic nucleus." Artistic Director, Bonnie J. Monte said, “We are absolutely thrilled that Governor Kean’s name will grace our building.

New Jerseyans were asked their views of the ten people alive this year who have served as the state’s chief executive since 1974. Kean is on top of the heap – as he was in surveys taken in 2010 and 2006 – with the late Brendan Byrne coming in at number two. The state’s newest former governor, Chris Christie, finds himself alone in the cellar. Tom Kean (R; 1982-90) is viewed favorably by 45% of the New Jersey public and unfavorably by 12%, with 43% having no opinion. This is comparable to his 46% favorable and 9% unfavorable rating eight years ago. His +33 point net positive rating keeps Kean clearly at the top of the Garden State gubernatorial leader board. Kean’s predecessor, Brendan Byrne (D; 1974-82), edges into second place among the field of ten with a +18 net positive rating – 28% favorable and 10% unfavorable, with 62% who have no opinion. Among New Jerseyans age 55 and older – i.e. those who were of voting age when Byrne was still governor – Byrne earns an even more positive +33 rating (46% favorable and 13% unfavorable).
