A cleanup bill like this is critical. Good news.
UPDATE: A cannabis bill – which reduces + clarifies consequences for young people – is making its way through the Legislature. NJ must clear the way for arrests to end + for an equitable marketplace to take shape. The legislative + executive branches need to advance this bill.

New Jersey is still planning on administering high-stakes standardized testing this spring, even as other states are asking the federal government for a waiver. Send a letter to your legislators using the link from @SavOurSchoolsNJ below. 👇👇👇
New Jersey should be leading the way in requesting a waiver from this year's ESSA testing (NJSLA, DLM, ACCESS), but several other states have beat us to it! Please let @GovMurphy know it's time. actionnetwork.org/letters/nj…

A new proposal by @JoeLaganaNJ & @ASWReyJackson would boost the pay of working families by expanding the Earned Income Tax Credit. The #EITC is one of the most effective anti-poverty programs in the U.S. — this bill will ensure more workers can claim it. njpp.org/media/press-release…
