A 723 New Jersey General Assembly · 2026-2027 Regular Session

Requires members of State Board of Education to attend meetings in person to be recorded as present.

This bill requires New Jersey State Board of Education members to attend meetings in person to be counted as present, except during a governor-declared state emergency. It also mandates that all public meetings be accessible both in person and virtually, with a live link posted online for remote viewing. Additionally, the bill ensures the public can submit comments during meetings remotely during public comment sessions. These changes directly affect board members' attendance tracking and public participation in education policy discussions.
