S 2098 New Jersey Senate · 2026-2027 Regular Session

Imposes restrictions concerning Port Authority of New York and New Jersey commissioners, officers, and employees regarding employment, gifts, and compensation.

S 2098 restricts personal expense reimbursements for Port Authority of New York and New Jersey commissioners, officers, and employees. It prohibits paying for personal vehicle use (including commuting), tolls, or fares, and requires written approval for travel reimbursements. The bill also bans housing allowances, personal credit lines, and tuition reimbursements unless tied to specific job duties with a 5-year service commitment. These rules directly affect all Port Authority staff and subsidiaries, aiming to prevent personal financial benefits from public employment. The law focuses on concrete policy changes to limit personal expense coverage related to official duties.
