Overview
This bill requires New Jersey’s state senators and assembly members to hold at least two town hall meetings each year. At least one of these meetings must be held within their legislative district, providing a direct opportunity for constituents to voice their opinions and ask questions. The meetings must be accessible to all and offer sufficient time for legislators to engage with the public, with longer meetings for larger gatherings. This aims to increase legislative responsiveness and accountability.
