Note: On April 3, 2023, New Jersey Governor Phil Murphy enacted the Elections Transparency Act (ETA). This act brings substantial changes to the state’s campaign finance and pay-to-play regulations. Representing the most significant revision in nearly twenty years, the ETA will significantly impact the management of political campaigns and public contracts in New Jersey. 

For more information on the ETA and its Implications for NJBMDA members, please review BMDGG’s updated FAQs and visit Understanding the New Jersey Elections Transparency Act (ETA) on the NJBMDA Legislative & Regulatory page.
