Chairman,

About the Committee

The Assembly Military and Veterans Affairs Committee is responsible for state policy that affects New Jersey’s veterans, active duty personal and members of the New Jersey National Guard. The chairman and the members of this committee strive to create legislation to honor our veterans and soldiers, to promote their health & safety, protect their interest and ensure their service to our country and state does not go unrecognized.

About Chairman Conners
