In this video press release, Assemblywomen Dr. Joan M. Voss (D-Bergen), L. Grace Spencer (D-Essex) and Valerie Vainieri Huttle (D-Bergen) discuss two new laws - championed by former-Assembly Speaker Joseph J. Roberts, Jr. - that extend benefits and protections to adults with autism.

The first law (A-4225) permits adults with autism to voluntarily place their names on a new state registry to help New Jersey improve its planning and services for those with the disorder.

The second law (A-4226) revises the state's Law Against Discrimination to specifically prohibit discriminatory acts against people with autism.

The laws were signed by Senate President/acting Governor Stephen M. Sweeney (D-Gloucester) during a public ceremony Jan. 15 at the Alpine Learning Group in Paramus.
