This weekend’s “Minding Your Business” on News 12+ will feature comprehensive coverage of a rally in Trenton. The event includes a coalition of legislators from both parties, union workers, energy producers, and business leaders urging the Environmental Protection Agency and the state Department of Environmental Protection to avoid implementing electric vehicle mandates. The coalition argues that these mandates are unattainable and could negatively impact New Jersey’s economy.
Additionally, this weekend's show will include an interview with Felicia Grondin, Executive Director of the Council on Compulsive Gambling of New Jersey (CCGNJ). Grondin will discuss with host Bob Considine the rise in addictive gambling in New Jersey following the legalization of online betting.
The CCGNJ has been operating for over 40 years, aiming to raise awareness about problem gambling in New Jersey. It offers various resources for individuals struggling with addiction and their families. More information is available on their website at www.800gambler.org.
On September 20, CCGNJ will hold its annual conference titled "Betting on Change: Confronting the Surge in Problem Gambling" at the New Jersey Hospital Association’s headquarters in Princeton. Registration details can be found on their website.
