Appropriates $300,000 from General Fund to New Jersey Agricultural Experiment Station at Rutgers University.

This bill appropriates $300,000 from New Jersey's General Fund to the Rutgers University New Jersey Agricultural Experiment Station specifically for the Veterans Environmental Technology and Solutions (VETS) program. The funding will continue and expand this initiative, which provides unemployed veterans with training in sustainable landscaping, environmental skills, and business development through classroom instruction, site visits, and community projects. The program helps veterans transition to civilian life while supporting local environmental improvement efforts. The VETS program, originally established in Essex County in 2014, had previously ended due to funding gaps. This supplemental appropriation ensures its ongoing operation and growth.
