New Jersey A1883 amends the state's alcohol sales regulations to extend the prohibited sales zone from 200 feet to 1,000 feet around schools and religious institutions. This includes public and private schools, licensed child care centers, registered family day care homes, and unified child care agencies. The bill also applies the 1,000-foot restriction to religious institutions.
