Today, Congressman Van Drew voiced his extreme concern with the process of reopening Motor Vehicle Commission (MVC) facilities. Lines at almost every location were backed up to enormous levels, with some people waiting in line all day and still not receiving help. In some cases, law enforcement had to step in to assist in the process.
“The reopening of the MVC has been wrought with pain for people who have been waiting months to get help; we have to offer more options including tele-conference in addition to opening more locations offering more services,” said Rep. Van Drew. “The entire country has had to adapt to new ways of operating, but apparently the MVCs, under Governor Murphy’s guidance, have not. The Governor demanded every voter in the state vote by mail because of concerns over long lines; I want an explanation on how the monstrous lines we saw this week at MVCs can be allowed and I want solutions.”
Can someone please explain why it was closed in the first place. Big stores, Liquor Sores etc. were all open.
Liquor stores were only open because if they werent, there would be a whole new medical crisis with alcoholics going through very dangerous withdrawals, possibly life-threatening, without the benefit of medical intervention. That crisis would have taken up hospital beds that were needed for COVID patients. Sometimes you have to choose your battles.
The same power-grabbing Governor who just extended the state of emergency for another thirty days and is mandating the use of masks OUTDOORS could have easily extended all MVC deadlines for another two months, or mandated extended MVC hours. If someone at MVC waw capable of independent thought, they could have put in a system of appointments.Different days of the week for different transactions. Let’s use some brains!
Put your money where your mouth is. Don’t complain if you vote democrat.
