The New Jersey Legislature held a joint session on February 25, 2025, at 3:00 PM, focusing on key budgetary initiatives and legislative priorities. The meeting highlighted significant investments in women's health care, particularly in the area of reproductive rights.

The session commenced with a discussion on the state budget, where officials announced plans to make the largest investment in protecting reproductive rights in New Jersey's history.

The next steps will involve implementing these budgetary measures and monitoring their impact on health care access in New Jersey.
