New Jersey Brewers Association (NJBA) President Lori White, Statement on Passage of S-3038

Legislation To Strengthen New Jersey’s Breweries Now Heads to State Assembly for Friday Vote

“S-3038 passing in the New Jersey State Senate today brings us one step closer to meaningful change that will strengthen an important piece of our small business community. After this legislation passes the Assembly and the Governor signs it into law, breweries throughout the state will be in a better position than ever to impact their communities economically and by strengthening the social fabric of the towns they are proud to be a part of.”

White added, “We are grateful to Senator Vin Gopal and Senator Linda Greenstein for their leadership, along with co-sponsors Senators Johnson, Zwicker, Gill, Turner, and Stanfield.  Additionally, we thank the New Jersey State Senate members who supported this bill, and the countless NJBA members, who, along with members of their local communities, spoke up about how vital these changes are to their neighborhoods.”

This Friday (June 30th), the New Jersey State Assembly is scheduled to vote on A-4630, that chamber’s version of the legislation. Should the bill pass on Friday, the legislation moves on to Governor Murphy for consideration.
