PERTH AMBOY — Perth Amboy Mayor Wilda Diaz released the following statement concerning S481/ A2014, a bill to automatically register eligible voters who interact with the Motor Vehicle Commission and other eligible state agencies:

“Thanks to the efforts of Senators and Members of the Assembly, including our own Senator Joseph Vitale and Assembly Speaker Craig Coughlin, New Jersey’s eligible voters will face less barriers and greater ease as they engage in the electoral process.  S481/A2014 would allow for eligible voters to be automatically registered to vote when they register or update their license at the Motor Vehicle Commission or file paperwork with other state agencies. By setting a path for agencies beyond MVC, these bills are also ensuring that all potential voters can benefit from the streamlined process. I commend these legislators on behalf of the residents of the City of Perth Amboy.”
