Bill > S2559

Introduced Session

This bill exempts, from motor vehicle registration fees, motor vehicles not used for pleasure or for hire that are owned by any local nutrition program for seniors that is a Meals on Wheels America member. Meals on Wheels America focuses on caring for individuals whose diminished mobility makes it difficult to shop for food, prepare meals, or socialize with others. Through member programs in communities throughout New Jersey, Meals on Wheels America provides seniors with nutritious meals and companionship and provides a watchful eye on the health and safety of New Jersey seniors. While adequate nutrition is necessary for health, functionality, and the ability to remain independent, the work of Meals on Wheels America is also important to many New Jersey seniors who know that a meal is just as much about the company across the table as it is about the food on the plate. This bill makes it less costly for local Meals on Wheels America programs to fulfill their important mission by exempting program vehicles from motor vehicle registration fees.
