Chris Ilic of NJHSREPS Discusses Legislative Initiatives with Congressman Jeff Van Drew

MORRIS COUNTY — New Jersey High School Republican (NJHSREPS) Vice Chairman Chris Ilic recently met with Congressman Jeff Van Drew in Washington, D.C., to discuss legislative initiatives involving the NJHSREPS.

In a bipartisan effort, the New Jersey High School Republicans and New Jersey High School Democrats introduced the Involve Our Youth Act at the Trenton Statehouse. In January, this bill passed both the Assembly and Senate and was signed into law by Governor Phil Murphy. The legislation aims to enhance youth civic participation across New Jersey, allowing students one excused absence per school year to attend civic events.

The New Jersey High School Republicans are developing another bill focused on youth military education, which they hope to introduce soon to the New Jersey Legislature.

Founded in January 2021, the New Jersey High School Republicans (NJHSREPS) serve as the official youth auxiliary of the NJGOP. Their mission is to unite and mobilize teens interested in political advocacy and making a difference. NJHSREPS has gained recognition for its public policy and campaign efforts throughout the state.

NJHSREPS is also set to host a Young Conservative Brunch on Friday, July 26th, at the Stage House Tavern in Somerset, featuring speakers such as Jack Ciattarelli and Bill Spadea.
