>NJ moves to reimburse anti-bullying efforts costs
New Jersey lawmakers are all but certain to send Gov. Chris Christie a $1 million appropriation that would allow the state’s tough anti-bullying legislation to be implemented.
The Senate and Assembly are due to vote on the appropriation Thursday. Christie has signaled his willingness to sign it.
New Jersey’s anti-bullying law was set aside after one small school district complained about the cost of training and materials. A local mandates council agreed the law created a financial burden. (Associated Press)
