Statement by Governor Murphy on the Passing of Former Middlesex Assemblywoman Arline Friscia

10/18/2019

 “As an advocate for women and children, Woodbridge Councilwoman, and Assemblywoman, Arline Friscia wore many hats and helped many people throughout her years in public service, and our state is that much the better for it. Her compassion may have been best exemplified by her championing an expansion of the state’s family leave law at a time when many considered such a thing unthinkable. Tammy and I send our condolences to her family, former colleagues and staff, and friends in Middlesex County and across New Jersey.”
