What happens if New Jersey state government shuts down on July 1?

If there is no budget in place by June 30, government services would no longer be funded and would shut down except for agencies deemed "essential" by Gov. Phil Murphy.

The Legislature adopted a budget on Thursday but Murphy has been at odds with leaders of his own party over taxes and spending.

Last year, Murphy and lawmakers averted a shutdown at the last minute. In 2017, during Christie's last year in office, the government shut down for three days and resulted in the infamous photo of Christie lounging on Island Beach State Park with his family even though the beach was closed to the public.

With the Independence Day holiday looming, the governor could choose — if there were to be a shutdown — to keep state parks and beaches open through the long holiday weekend as happened during the 2006 shutdown.

The Motor Vehicle Commission, state courts and the lottery would likely close but State Police and the National Guard would operate as usual.

Casinos in Atlantic City would stay open for the first seven days of a shutdown.
