Gov. Phil Murphy says he promises to be transparent once the findings of an independent review of the state’s response to the COVID-19 pandemic are released.
The governor made his first public comments on Tuesday since announcing the long-anticipated review.
“We’re going to take whatever comes at us. We are going to be transparent, completely cooperative…This is going to include the whole range of responses, including, importantly, in our veterans homes,” Murphy said.
Paul Zoubek will oversee the investigation. He previously served in the state attorney general’s office under two Republican governors.
Results are not expected until the end of 2023.
