Gov. Phil Murphy and state lawmakers have agreed to send an additional $235 million in funding to help small businesses in the state struggling amid the COVID-19 pandemic.
The state is also allocating $40 million in federal dollars from the Coronavirus Relief Fund (CRF) for an “excluded residents fund” targeting those previously ineligible for federal stimulus programs, including “undocumented immigrants,” according to news reports.
