Happy Labor Day, New Jersey! Today, we recognize the working people who help our communities thrive. As our nation faces an affordability crisis, it's important we have workers’ backs. Everyone deserve the dignity of being able to provide for themselves and their loved ones.

Yesterday, Governor Mikie Sherrill signed Asm. Macurdy's bill, known as the End Data Center Tax Credits Act. The legislation redirects $250 million in uncommitted tax credits previously reserved for AI data center construction to other economic development priorities in the State.
