The bill has been widely supported by legislators and labor leaders but staunchly opposed by the New Jersey Hospital Association, which says the bill would “dissuade entities from coming to the state to take over failing hospitals,” according to the news report.
NJHA Senior Vice President Randy Minniear adds the bill would be union-driven, add more red tape and prove onerous to the affected hospitals. On the other end of the table, union supporters that represent nurses and other healthcare professionals say the bill would create more transparency and give taxpayers insight into how their taxpayer dollars are used.
