The “Economic Opportunity Act of 2013,” which will collapse the State’s four business recruitment and retention incentives into a single program, has now been approved by the Senate Economic Development Committee, the Assembly Commerce Committee, and the Assembly Budget Committee. The legislation needs only one more committee approval (Senate Budget) before it heads to the full Senate and Assembly for a vote, and Gov. Christie has previously indicated his intention to sign the bill into law when it gets to his desk.
