Veto Overruled as Constabulary Bill Passes Assembly
Governor Edwards vetoed the constabulary bill but the Senate overrode it with a thin majority. The new measure expands state policing, backing a $200,000 appropriation, while opponents warn it enables labor oppression and weakens civil liberties. The vote clears the bill to implement routes and budgets across New Jersey and sets the stage for subsequent legislative action.
