January 16, 2020 - from Vos Is Neias:
"New Jersey Democratic Gov. Phil Murphy signed legislation Wednesday expanding the definition of terrorism under state law in response to last month’s fatal attack on a kosher market in Jersey City."
"The new law says terrorism includes crimes aimed at inciting terror against people based on their religion, race or national origin, among other factors."
"Previous law said someone was guilty of terrorism if the person committed crimes aimed at promoting terror, terrorizing five or more people, influencing government policy through terror or impairing public transportation, communication, or other public services."
"Murphy also signed a bill that sets aside $1 million for security grants for nonprofits."
