Human trafficking is a grave violation of humanity that impacts millions of men, women, and children every year. Anyone can be ensnared in the sinister web of criminal human trafficking networks and New Jerseyans are no exception.

With the passage of this legislation we are moving one step closer to providing greater support for survivors of these heinous crimes to help them recover emotionally, physically, and financially.

Sen. Jean Stanfield's bill instructing the Attorney General’s Office to provide additional support and outreach to victims of human trafficking has passed the Senate.

Today’s Senate vote moves us one step closer to preserving more of our farmland for future generations. Our rich agricultural history extends multiple centuries and is what makes us the Garden State.

This legislation would revise the farmland appraisal process to make it more reasonable and incentivize more people to participate in the Farmland Preservation Program.

Sen. Jean Stanfield's bill that would help preserve more farmland in New Jersey was passed by the New Jersey Senate.
