Budget & Taxes (Appropriations · Government Transparency)

This bill requires New Jersey's State Treasurer to create a free, searchable public website displaying detailed financial data about state spending and revenue. It mandates that all state agencies and public entities receiving state funds must provide information on annual expenditures (including salaries, vendor payments, and local aid), revenues (like taxes and grants), and bond debt. The website must include specific data categories - such as exact amounts paid to vendors and bond details - and be updated within 45 days after each fiscal year ends. The law applies to all state departments, the legislature, courts, and any public entity receiving state funds.
