Camden County GOP Chairman: “No One Forced Duvall Out Of The Primary”

HADDON HEIGHTS – Camden County Republican Chairman Rich Ambrosino addressed some concerns after learning Josh Duvall has dropped out of the CD1 GOP primary

election.

“Yesterday I learned Josh Duvall has dropped out of the Republican primary election for Congress in CD1. Just like when he announced he was running, he didn’t bother calling any county chairs and simply issued a press release,” Ambrosino said. “I have a serious issue with him implying that he was forced out of the race.”

“No one tried to force Josh Duvall out of the primary.” Ambrosino explained, “Frankly, it was the other way around. Duvall and his supporters felt he shouldn’t be challenged because he announced early. I had to explain that isn’t how it works and everyone appears before our screening committee to determine who gets the organization’s endorsement.”

“Gloucester County GOP Chairwoman Jacci Vigilante and I went the extra mile to encourage Josh.” Ambrosino continued, “We met with Josh after Burlington County endorsed Claire Gustafson and encouraged him to stay in the race and appear before our screening committees. Obviously, he chose not to do that.”

“I’m not sure why Duvall felt the need to attack the party on his way out of the race,” Ambrosino said. “He clearly doesn’t understand primary elections are ‘purity tests’ and he doesn’t understand this party is solidly behind President Trump. Duvall also doesn’t understand our county party has been growing over the past couple of years and I’m sorry he doesn’t want to be part of that growth, but that’s his choice.”

NJ Sierra Club Opinion: Menhaden Fishing Quota Bill Released from Committee

The Senate Budget and Appropriations Committee released S3796 (Andrzejczak). The bill requires the DEP Commissioner to establish individual transferable quota system for menhaden purse seine fishery. Jeff Tittel, Director of the New Jersey Sierra Club, released the following

statement:

“Menhaden are an important species and the food supply and stability of our fisheries, but this bill would lead to overfishing of this critical fish. Our concern is that the bill will privatize the regulation and mandate by setting up this quote system. By locking in quotas for different fishing interests, we believe it will lead to overfishing. What is an even bigger problem is the trading system of quotas. Menhaden are a critical link to the food web and are known as forage species. This means they function as a food source for larger species like bluefish and striped bass. This legislation will essentially be a destructive domino effect throughout the marine food chain. It will not only impact these important species, but impact New Jersey’s commercial and recreational fisheries.”

Rutgers Dental School Receives Funding to Expand Care for Patients With Disabilities

By Carrie Stetler

Rutgers School of Dental Medicine will get a $250,000 boost for the only dental clinic in the region that provides care to patients with disabilities and on the autism spectrum.

The Rutgers School of Dental Medicine (RSDM) – which offers the only dental clinics in the region providing care to patients with disabilities – will be able to treat more special-needs patients because of new state funding expected to receive final approval from Governor Murphy.

The bill, which would give RSDM $250,000, was introduced by state assemblyman Dan Benson (D-14) in the spring and overwhelmingly passed the state senate and assembly. The governor has 45 days to give final approval.

“We deeply appreciate all of those who recognize how important it is that everyone, without exception, have access to oral health care,” said Cecile A. Feldman, dental school dean who thanked supporters for these much-needed funds. “Additional resources mean that we can provide care on a wider scale.’’

John Barnosky, the father of a special-needs patient who is on the autism spectrum, advocated strongly for funds to support RSDM’s Delta Dental of New Jersey Special Care Center, which trains dentists to work with patients who have disabilities.

“Disability can happen to anyone. It’s a bipartisan issue,’’ said Barnosky. “The approval of this bill shows that you can make a difference and be a voice for those who can’t speak for themselves.’’

A severe shortage of special-needs dentists, and a booming population of patients with physical disabilities and behavioral disorders, has left special-needs providers at

RSDM

and beyond struggling to meet the demand.

The dental school, the largest oral health care provider in the state, logged 7,757special-needs patient visits in 2017. In New Jersey, more than 10 percent of the population has at least one disability, a figure that totals 911,300.

Nationwide, 48 percent of patients with disabilities had no dental check-up within a year, compared to 35 percent without disabilities, according to a 2016 study published in the

Journal of Public Health Dentistry.

Barnosky’s son, Peter, 28, can be combative during check-ups. Since so few dentists are willing to provide even routine treatment, like cleanings and fillings, he often had to wait months for a non-emergency visit at RSDM.

Many dental offices lack ramps for wheelchairs, doorways that are wide enough for gurneys to fit through and other accommodations. But one of the greatest obstacles is dentists who lack training and experience. In addition to treating special-needs patients, RSDM trains all students to work with patients with disabilities.

According to Feldman, extra staffing and additional surgical resources to treat the many special care patients who need general anesthesia will greatly bolster RSDM’s clinical and educational mission.

Can\’t Decide What Type Of Boat To Buy? Here Is A Short Guide

Buying a boat for the first time can be an overwhelming process for the first time. Many different types of boats can be used for various purposes. You shouldn’t look at any friend’s or family member’s vessel and get the same thing because it might not be as suitable for your needs.

Before Thinking Of Buying

The first thing is, you will need to have a boating license. For which you should consider taking classes, consider taking

Look into each different kind of boat

Think about what you want to do with the boat. Make a list of all the activities that you, or your family, might want to do. Here is a list of the common types of boats:

New Or Used

Used boats can be just as good and last just as long if they are in good condition. Consider getting a thorough inspection before buying a pre-owned vessel.

NJ Assemblyman Moriarty Takes Credit for New Minimum Wage of $11

WASHINGTON TOWNSHIP NJ (January 3, 2020)–Thousands of people across the state started their new year with a dollar raise thanks to the rise in the minimum wage to $11. The increase is a result of the legislation signed into law last February to put NJ on the path to a $15 minimum wage by 2024 for most workers.

CNBNews graphics file

According to Assemblyman Paul D. Moriarty, a prime sponsor of the legislation, “Putting New Jersey on the path to $15 was the right thing to do to help level the playing field for our hard-working residents.” The minimum wage will continue to increase by one dollar every January 1st until it reaches $15 in 2024.

Someone working 40 hours per week will now make $ 4,472 a year more at $11 an hour than they did a year ago at $8.85. “With almost $90 more each week, minimum wage workers today have a much better chance to thrive than they did a year ago.”

However, not all workers received the same raise. Due to concerns for some industries, the minimum wage for employees of small businesses, farms, and seasonal businesses rose from $8.85 to $10.30 an hour. All Seasonal and small business employees will reach $15 an hour by 2026, and farmworkers could reach $15 by 2027 with legislative approval.

“By raising the minimum wage in a controlled way, we will ensure our workers are treated fairly while our businesses continue to thrive.” Assemblyman Moriarty added, “This is just one way we are fighting for New Jersey Workers. Looking toward 2020, we plan to take on the misclassification of employees and bring transparency to forced arbitration in employment contracts.”
