Requires Commissioner of Human Services to request authorization for SNAP benefits to be used to pay delivery charges for online grocery purchases.

Maddy summaryThis bill (A-2040) requires New Jersey's Human Services Commissioner to request that the federal USDA allow SNAP (food stamp) benefits to cover delivery fees for online grocery orders. It directly affects low-income households in New Jersey who receive SNAP benefits and shop online through authorized retailers like Amazon, Walmart, ShopRite, and The Fresh Grocers. The key provision changes how SNAP funds can be used - permitting them to pay delivery charges for SNAP-eligible groceries, which was previously prohibited under federal rules. The bill was enacted into law (P.L.2023, c.236) after passing both legislative chambers unanimously.

Establishes NJ State Parks and Open Space Foundation.*

Maddy summaryThis bill establishes the New Jersey State Parks and Open Space Foundation, a nonprofit organization dedicated to raising funds for state parks, forests, historic sites, and natural areas. The foundation will supplement existing state and federal funding by accepting tax-deductible donations from qualifying nonprofits and the public to support park improvements, public programming, and accessibility enhancements. It will operate independently under a nine-member board (including government representatives and public members with environmental expertise) and must comply with state nonprofit and open meeting laws. The foundation’s funds may only be used for projects beyond routine park operations, such as facility renovations or educational programs, not for regular maintenance.
