HAMILTON — Department of Banking and Insurance Commissioner Richard J. Badolato and DOBI staff last week visited the Government and Law Related Experiences (GALRE) class at Hamilton West High School. Commissioner Badolato shared his career experience in law and in leading DOBI.  

 
“This Department fosters a regulatory culture that promotes growth and strengthens the financial industries we regulate while also doing an excellent job of educating and protecting New Jersey consumers,” Commissioner Badolato told students. “We have worked successfully for the enactment of laws that have promoted growth of the financial services industries in New Jersey.”

The honors elective class provides in-depth knowledge and first-hand experiences in the political process on national, state and local levels. It aims to teach students who may be interested in a career in politics, law, government services, community affairs or other related fields. The course provides students with the opportunity to meet with political and civic leaders both in the classroom and at government agencies or political meetings.
