A committee of the New Jersey Legislature has recommended approval of a bill—identical to one previously vetoed—that would permit legally binding gestational carrier agreements.
The Senate Health, Human Services and Senior Citizens Committee recommended passage of the bill, S-482, in a 6-2 vote on Monday.
Republican Gov. Chris Christie vetoed the bill in 2012 and 2015, when both legislative chambers approved it. Last year the measure once again passed the Senate, though the Assembly didn’t take action before the close of the legislative session.
