How Can We Help You?
What are we working on?
Protecting New Jersey Residents in Court
The Attorney General protects the rights of New Jersey’s residents by standing up to corporate polluters, financial fraudsters, discriminatory employers—and when necessary, the federal government.
Fighting the Opioid Crisis
The opioid crisis cuts across every segment of New Jersey society, without regard to class, race, gender, or profession. The response must be equally far-reaching.
Combatting Gun Violence
Over the past decade, nearly 5,000 New Jersey residents have been killed by guns. This is more than a tragedy. It’s also a public health crisis.
Strengthening Community Trust
New Jersey is advancing a new model for police-community relations—one built on trust, transparency, and accountability.
