Murphy signs 1-year law lifting 2% cap for school levies in some districts. Is it enough?
A 2018 law that hit some school districts with unexpected funding cuts has put Gov. Phil Murphy and Trenton Democrats in a bind for the past several years. The result is a new law, signed by Murphy this week, that permits those 147 districts to lift, for a one-year period, New Jersey’s 2% property tax cap for school tax levies.

Murphy signed another law permitting some school districts facing cuts in state aid to submit budgets within five days of the fiscal year 2025 appropriations act − giving them a grace period to finalize budgets.
