S 1768 New Jersey Senate · 2026-2027 Regular Session

Requires stress testing on State's ability to provide services in various economic conditions.

This bill requires New Jersey's Department of the Treasury to conduct and publicly report a triennial stress test analyzing the state's ability to maintain essential services during economic shifts. The analysis must include projections of tax and federal revenue, comparisons to historical trends, expected changes in spending, accounting of state reserves (like the Surplus Revenue Fund), and recession response options. The report must be posted online and included in the Governor's annual budget message. This applies directly to state budget planning and fiscal transparency, affecting how New Jersey prepares for economic downturns. The bill takes effect immediately upon enactment.
