A 3212 New Jersey General Assembly · 2026-2027 Regular Session

Places restrictions on unsolicited school budget communications sent by board of education to school district residents 90 days prior to annual school election.

This bill restricts how school boards can communicate proposed budget details to residents within 90 days of annual school elections. It requires any unsolicited communication (via mail, email, text, etc.) to be sent to all registered voters and include only the total budget amount, tax levy, and basic budget line items - no additional details. Printed materials must be limited to one page (8.5x11 inches), and communications cannot include board member names or photos. The bill directly affects school boards and residents receiving these election-related budget notices.
