SUMMARY:Presentation- Update on Southern Reliability Link (SRL) and SJ Gas Pipeline-impacts
DESCRIPTION:New Jersey Natural Gas has begun their construction of their Southern Reliability Link (SRL) in Burlington and Ocean County despite still being involved in ongoing litigation. SRL is 28-mile gas pipeline that will destroy environmentally sensitive land in the Pinelands and threaten communities along the route in Burlington\, Ocean\, and Monmouth Counties. SRL will create irreversible harm to wetlands\, streams\, as well as damage important open spaces\, and threaten one of the largest sources of fresh drinking water on the east coast. The proposed SJ Gas Pipeline is another unnecessary and destructive pipeline that would cut a 22- mile scar through the Pinelands. South Jersey Gas plans were to build their pipeline to connect into the B.L. England plant however since the plant will not repower with natural gas\, there is no need for the SJ Gas pipeline.  Both Pinelands pipelines must be stopped. That is why it is more important than ever that Governor Murphy puts a moratorium on new fossil fuel projects. \nWhere: The Ocean County Library\, 101 Washington St\, Toms River\, NJ 08753 \nWhen: Monday\, May 13th from 7:00 pm 8:45pm \nFacebook Event Link:  https://www.facebook.com/events/2405196033058514/ \nEmpower NJ Website: http://empowernewjersey.com/

SUMMARY:Overdose Prevention Centers Conference
DESCRIPTION:Drug overdose is now the leading cause of accidental death nationally and in New Jersey\, with more than 3\,000 New Jersey residents dying from overdose each year. Many of these deaths are preventable and as you know\, DPA works to promote policies that will help save lives through our Overdose Prevention Campaign. DPA will be launching a campaign in support of legislation (Senate Bill 3293 / Assembly Bill 4638) to establish overdose prevention centers (also known as safe consumption spaces) in response to the devastating loss of life. \nOverdose prevention centers are locations where people can legally consume previously purchased drugs under the supervision of trained staff.  The staff are able to provide immediate assistance in the case of an overdose and connect people to drug treatment\, medical care\, social services and harm reduction services.  Fear of arrest and prosecution\, as well as the stigma attached to drug use\, force people to hide their drug use or use drugs in unsafe conditions.  If these barriers were removed\, countless lives could be saved. \nPlease mark your calendars and save-the-date as Drug Policy Alliance is hosting a conference at The College of New Jersey (TCNJ) on Friday\, April 5th at 10:00 am.  Join us to learn from an expert panel of public health officials\, researchers\, legal experts\, and community leaders on innovations in overdose prevention.  The event will take place at TCNJ\, 2000 Pennington Road\, Ewing\, NJ 08628 in the School of Education Building #115. For more details\, please see the flyer below. \nAdmission\, lunch and CEUs are free\, but space is limited\, so please RSVP to reserve your spot!

SUMMARY:Redistricting Reform Best Practices for a Fairer New Jersey
DESCRIPTION:The League of Women Voters of New Jersey – together with the Fair Districts New Jersey Coalition and the Network for Responsible Public Policy – has announced a series of ten public forums taking place across the state to educate voters on gerrymandering and the legislative redistricting process\, and to present ideas for reforms. The forums\, “Redistricting Reform Best Practices for a Fairer New Jersey\,” are a continuation of the League’s voter education work to demystify a process that has a great impact on our communities and our political representation\, but that few fully understand. All events are free and open to the public. \n \nIn addition to outlining the current legislative redistricting process in New Jersey\, LWV wants to provide the public with information about anti-gerrymandering reforms in other states\, and present redistricting principles and best practices that can be applied here in New Jersey. And more importantly\, the League wants to encourage ongoing public commentary on redistricting so citizens feel empowered to participate in the next map-drawing process.‍

DESCRIPTION:The League of Women Voters of New Jersey – together with the Fair Districts New Jersey Coalition and the Network for Responsible Public Policy – has announced a series of ten public forums taking place across the state to educate voters on gerrymandering and the legislative redistricting process\, and to present ideas for reforms. The forums\, “Redistricting Reform Best Practices for a Fairer New Jersey\,” are a continuation of the League’s voter education work to demystify a process that has a great impact on our communities and our political representation\, but that few fully understand. All events are free and open to the public. \n \nIn addition to outlining the current legislative redistricting process in New Jersey\, LWV wants to provide the public with information about anti-gerrymandering reforms in other states\, and present redistricting principles and best practices that can be applied here in New Jersey. And more importantly\, the League wants to encourage ongoing public commentary on redistricting so citizens feel empowered to participate in the next map-drawing process.‍
