“Today’s Senate vote advancing this legislation puts a plan in place to get unspent relief funds to water customers who need help. The federal government provided $24 million dollars to fund the state’s Low Income Household Water Assistance Program, but more than $17 million of that remains unspent,” Corrado said. “That’s because most water and sewer companies in New Jersey do not participate in the assistance program which prevents customers from benefiting from this federal aid. By boosting participation in the program, we can help more eligible homeowners before reaching the September deadline.”

“We’ve made great strides in recent years in our efforts to stop the proliferation of revenge porn and the non-consensual sharing of intimate photos and videos online,” said Corrado (R-40). “Unfortunately, some bad actors are getting around the revenge porn law by using new AI tools to generate pornography that appears to be the targeted victim. The public sharing of ‘deepfake’ pornography that includes a person’s likeness can be just as devastating for a victim as the real thing.”
