New Jersey budget, debt, and interest

New Jersey state-government finances, comparable debt and interest figures, and the enacted budget.

The national companion measures federal finances. Here the unit is New Jersey state government. Federal debt is not allocated to New Jersey; a state budget is not the federal budget.

Explore New Jersey readings, major events and reviewed actions on the same date scale. New Jersey officeholders appear in separate lanes. National event evidence describes national context; it does not measure a New Jersey effect.

How major events are selected

The timeline combines the corresponding national fact’s reviewed event catalog, labeled National context, with individually reviewed state milestones. State events use primary sources and distinguish signing, effective and filing dates. Each milestone keeps its source-check date, geographical limits and evidence limits. This curated selection is not a complete history.

Date ranges affect events and actions. Action type, status and official-name search affect government records only. Events remain separate from action counts. An event after the latest observation extends context without creating a new reading.

Candidate campaign source

I will fight to require hospitals and insurers to publish real, upfront prices for procedures and services so families can plan and budget with confidence. I will also support strong penalties for providers and insurers that hide pricing, and expand access to clear, user-friendly comparison tools so patients can shop for care the same way they do for any other major expense. Transparency creates competition, and competition lowers costs. I also support lowering the cap on Medicare premiums to reduce out-of-pocket costs for seniors, helping them access care without financial stress.

How statements are selected

This section matches specific budgets, government spending, deficits and public debt terms in retained, attributed source text from published New Jersey candidate profiles. A profile heading or biography alone does not qualify. The Florida geography is fixed; saved state preferences cannot change these results. A mention can concern a community or group rather than Florida’s statewide measure.

Matching is automatic and does not establish a candidate’s stance, the accuracy of a claim, or an effect on the measured result. Results are grouped by recorded race, then by candidate name. Within each candidate, the matching issue mentions appear first. Only candidates with matching retained statements are shown; this is not a complete race roster. Repeated identical text for the same candidate is shown once. Coverage follows the existing state profiles and is not a complete record of all candidates or everything they have said. Review dates are not statement dates.

Jan 13, 2026 · Introduced, Referred to Assembly Children, Families and Food Security Committee

Assemblymember Luanne M. Peterpaul Esq. · Sponsored / Assemblymember Andrea Katz · Sponsored / Assemblymember Margie Donlon M.D. · Sponsored

FactVote reviewed summary

The bill would increase NJ FamilyCare monthly reimbursement rate paid to care management organizations.

The latest official New Jersey Legislature record shows this action on January 13, 2026: Introduced, Referred to Assembly Children, Families and Food Security Committee.

Why this record is included

The official record directly addresses health-insurance eligibility, enrollment, premiums, benefits, Medicaid, or NJ FamilyCare coverage. It does not establish an effect on New Jersey's uninsured rate.

What sponsorship and proposal counts tell us

Only current New Jersey officeholders retained in the reviewed collection qualify. Bills require a recorded primary sponsorship; cosponsors and signing officials are excluded from sponsorship counts. An official introducer recorded as acting by request is labeled “Introduced by request”; that procedural role does not establish personal policy endorsement. Governor and agency records qualify when recorded as proposed. A separately verified governor transmittal can also establish an original proposal whose latest status reflects its later outcome. Signing an enacted law alone does not establish a proposal. A record appearing under several facts is counted once per officeholder. A bill with multiple primary sponsors appears under each recorded sponsor.

Enacted bills, adopted resolutions and unsuccessful measures remain visible as proposal history. Passing one chamber is not enactment. These counts do not measure effectiveness or prove that an action changed a New Jersey statistic. Collection reviewed Sep 4, 2026.
