Governor-elect Mikie Sherrill

Trenton, NJ — Governor-elect Mikie Sherrill today launched the third component of the transition’s policy process with an Interdisciplinary Task Force, bringing together voices from across New Jersey — representing a cross-section of stakeholders including labor, business, veterans, the environment, healthcare, education, and more.  

This interdisciplinary group with diverse and broad expertise will provide input to the Governor-elect and the Action Teams announced last week. Governor-elect Sherrill also recently announced an effort to engage New Jersey residents through a public survey.  

“Our team will hit the ground running on Day One because of everyone stepping up to create a better future for the people of New Jersey,” said Governor-elect Sherrill. “This Task Force, along with our Action Teams, is a crucial step in our mission to deliver and make life more affordable in New Jersey. I am grateful to everyone volunteering their time and lending their expertise to our transition as we work to make a difference for the people we serve.”  

The transition will also receive formal input from local elected officials from both parties, and stakeholders across industry and nonprofit sectors, such as leaders in higher education, hospital systems, small businesses, and those working on the ground on housing and food insecurity.
