Of fi c e of L E G I S L AT I V E S E R V I C E S
Prepared by the Office of Public Information
Current as of July 12, 2021.WELCOME TO
THE NEW JERSEY STATE CAPITOL
The public is invited to the Capitol to participate in the lawmaking process.
Galleries on the second floor of the State House allow for citizens to observe voting
sessions. The Senate President and General Assembly Speaker establish standards
for access and decorum, which are enforced by Sergeants at Arms.
Committee meetings are held in the State House Annex and are open to the public.
Committee chairs determine matters of protocol. Advance registration to provide
testimony typically is required and arranged by the committee aide. If public
attendance exceeds room capacity, an overflow space is provided when possible.
Citizens seeking to address legislators may wait in public corridors, with the
expectation they will not impede anyone’s progress, hold signs, or create a
disturbance. Rules for access are set by the State Capitol Joint Management
Commission and enforced by the State Police.
Public events and displays inside the Capitol are coordinated through the Public Use
Program (609-847-3130). Outside gatherings require a permit from the State Police
(609-984-4222).
Notice of legislative activity is available at www.njleg.org, on Twitter @OLS_Leginfo,
and from the Legislative Information and Bill Room (LIBR) in Room B1 of the State
House Annex (800-792-8630/609-847-3905). A publication with information
for visitors with special needs is available from the LIBR and at www.njleg.org.
Arrangements for special services are coordinated by the OLS Administrative Unit at
609-847-3353.
More information about the Capitol and the legislative process is provided on free
State House Tours, offered hourly on weekdays from 10:00 a.m. - 3:00 p.m., and
starting in the Annex lobby.
