New Jersey A2043 allows public institutions of higher education to assess tuition bills with waivable fees for legislative agents and organizations.

New Jersey A2043 modifies current law to permit public institutions of higher education to assess tuition bills with waivable fees for legislative agents and organizations that attempt to influence legislation. Previously, such fees required authorization through a student referendum. Under this bill, these fees would appear on tuition bills without prior student approval, but students retain the option to waive them. The bill defines a waivable fee as a separately assessed item on the tuition bill that is not mandatory.
