PASSAIC – Several measures sponsored by Senator Loretta Weinberg, designed to help promote religious equality and tolerance, were highlighted today by Governor Jon Corzine. The ceremonial bill signings took place at Ahavas Israel Park.
“These bills are about parity,” said Senator Weinberg, D-Bergen. “There are a number of different religions and belief systems that encourage specific dietary plans and worship activities, and the people who follow them should be able to participate without the fear of missing out on possible employment, healthcare opportunities or educational events.”
