A Small And Perhaps Temporary Victory...

The Star-Ledger reports:

Bill delaying plans to move disabled from institutions OKed by NJ Assembly
Gov. Chris Christie's administration would have to stop relocating people with developmental disabilities who now live in state institutions and suspend transfers of others from out-of-state facilities back to New Jersey until their safety and well-being are evaluated, under a bill that passed the state Assembly on Monday. But time is short and the bill’s future is uncertain. The Department of Human Services has already relocated 183 residents from the North Jersey Developmental Center in Totowa this year, emptying it in anticipation of closing it next week. The state has also transferred 83 residents this year from the Woodbridge Developmental Center, which is scheduled to close by the end of the year.
