We have seen RFK, Jr. and the Trump Administration do everything in their power to undermine trust in vaccines and health professionals. Today, I signed legislation ensuring vaccination and immunization guidance is state-based. Instead of mirroring increasingly unreliable federal vaccine guidance, we will instead look to professional health care bodies such as the @AmerAcadPeds, the American Academy of Family Physicians, the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists, and the American College of Physicians to develop our own recommendations.

The law also requires health insurers and health benefit plans to provide coverage for immunizations recommended by the @NJDeptofHealth — without any cost-sharing. At a time of increasing public distrust and misinformation, we are determined to bolster confidence in vaccinations and keep New Jerseyans safe and healthy.

Today, I signed bipartisan legislation to strengthen oversight for providers that serve individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities. These measures give @NJGov more authority to hold group home providers accountable and uphold high standards of care.

This morning, I signed bipartisan legislation requiring New Jersey school districts to educate students about the dangers of opioids in grades 6-12. Clear, honest information saves lives by helping students recognize risks and avoid bad choices. Talking to our kids about the dangers of opioids must be a cornerstone of our response to this crisis. nj.gov/governor/news/news/56…
