(TRENTON) – In response to concerns raised by advocacy organizations regarding access within the State House, Speaker Craig Coughlin (D-Middlesex) released the following statement:

“While I am confident that the Legislature already provides sound access to advocates and the public, I am always open to hearing ideas on how we can improve. To that end, I will be reaching out to these advocacy groups to begin a dialogue about possible ways to make the State House even more accessible to them and others who want to participate in the legislative process.”
