COMMITTEE
STATEMENT TO
ASSEMBLY, No. 4234
with committee amendments
STATE OF NEW JERSEY
DATED: FEBRUARY 13, 2023
The Assembly Commerce and Economic Development Committee
reports favorably Assembly Bill No. 4234, with committee
amendments.
As amended, this bill requires the Department of the Treasury to,
once every third year, conduct and report on a stress test analysis of
the State’s ability to maintain services and provide necessary
assistance to residents in various economic conditions. Stress tests
analyses can be used to help governments better prepare for future
economic recessions.
The stress test analyses required by this bill will include: (1) long-
and short-term projections of major funding sources, including
revenues from major taxes and funding from the federal government;
(2) a comparison between projections of major funding sources and
historical trends for each of those funding sources; (3) an analysis of
expenditures that are likely to increase or decrease in various
economic conditions; (4) an accounting of the State’s reserves,
including amounts deposited into the “Surplus Revenue Fund”; and (5)
options that the State has to respond to, and lessen the negative impact
of, economic recessions.
As amended and reported by the committee, Assembly Bill No.
4234 is identical to Senate Bill No. 2539(1R), which was also reported
by the committee on this date.
COMMITTEE AMENDMENTS:
The committee amendments require the Department of the
Treasury to conduct a stress test once every third year, rather than
annually.
