Ask Governor Murphy: What will the 'post-mortem' of NJ's COVID response find?

Ask Governor Murphy | Nov 30, 2022

New Jersey Gov. Phil Murphy has long been promising a "post-mortem" of the state's coronavirus response, and told reporters for months it was coming soon. This week, he finally hired an outside law firm to conduct a review. The announcement comes a few days after the federal government stopped new admissions to a New Jersey veterans home that failed to keep elderly veterans safe from COVID-19. The administration has also faced several lawsuits from veterans home staffers alleging they and residents weren't protected.

Guest host Doug Doyle will ask the governor what he has asked the outside consultants to do. Plus, we'll discuss New Jersey's teacher and judge shortages, as well as the signature initiative of Murphy’s second term: a property tax rebate program.
