A bill scheduled for consideration in a New Jersey Senate committee would prohibit the appearance on the state election ballot of any presidential or vice-presidential candidate who fails to disclose their federal income tax returns.
Three Senate Democrats–Loretta Weinberg of Bergen County and Shirley Turner and Linda Greenstein, both of Mercer County, are sponsors of S-119 that also would bar New Jersey members of the Electoral College from casting votes for Presidential or Vice-Presidential candidates who fail to make public their tax returns.
The bill is scheduled to be heard by the Senate State Government, Wagering, Tourism, and Historic Preservation Committee at 10:30 a.m. on January 31, 2019. The committee will meet in Room 4, 1st Floor, State House Annex in Trenton.
