🐾 A1165 cleared the Health Committee this morning. Sponsored by Assemblywomen Murphy and Bagolie, this would establish a pilot program to bring therapy dogs into elementary school wellness programs, helping children feel calmer, more confident, and ready to learn.

Transgender Day of Remembrance is not only a day of mourning, it’s a call to action. It asks us to stand with our neighbors, challenge hate wherever it appears, and ensure our communities protect every person for who they are.

Today is National Recycling Day, a time to recognize the simple steps that help keep New Jersey resilient. Every can, bottle, and piece of cardboard we recycle lightens the load on our landfills, strengthens local recycling programs, and protects the neighborhoods we call home.

Ruby Bridges was just six years old when she walked to school and changed the course of history. Thanks to AJR159, sponsored by Assemblywoman Shavonda Sumter and Assemblyman Anthony S. Verrelli and signed into law earlier this year, every November 14 is now Ruby Bridges Walk to School Day.

The chaos over SNAP benefits put an enormous strain on families and on the community partners who step up every day. With SNAP providing nine times the meals of food banks, the scale of the challenge is clear. Hear more from Fulfill about what this means for the people they serve.
