A 4158 New Jersey General Assembly · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Removes Election Day as State and public holiday.

This bill removes Election Day from the list of state public holidays in New Jersey. It amends two statutes (P.L.2008, c.89 and R.S.36:1-1) to delete "any general election day" as a recognized holiday for state government operations. As a result, state offices that previously closed on election days will now remain open for business. The change directly affects state government employees and operations, requiring them to work on election days instead of observing the day as a holiday.
