NJCBA STATEMENT ON THE PASSING OF LT. GOV. OLIVER

Trenton — New Jersey CannaBusiness Association President Scott Rudder issued the following statement today on the passing of Lieutenant Governor Sheila Oliver:

“When I began in the Legislature, my first Committee assignment was the Assembly Human Services Committee, of which, then-Assemblywoman Oliver was Chair. She was passionate, compassionate and strong in her convictions. More often than not, we found ourselves in agreement, despite our political differences, and we bonded over our ability to debate honestly and professionally. When she became Speaker, she again projected strength and a desire to bring different ideas together.

“Her legacy and impact on New Jersey will be felt for generations. This is a tremendous loss.”
