On Thursday, the state Senate Economic Growth Committee - chaired by Ray Lesniak - voted out of committee his bill (S2880) that would provide "up to $25 million in tax credits under Economic Redevelopment and Growth Grant Program for certain infrastructure at Rutgers, the State University of New Jersey." And that's good. The bill now also is only dealing with Rutgers; NJIT and Rowan have been pulled out of the current bill.
The Committee of three Democrats and two Republicans voted 5-0 to move the bill on to the full Senate. It is a positive step in the process, and it is a process.
