## Resource

Jersey City Board of Education Trustee Matthew Schneider is stepping down early, citing unexpected family circumstances after selling his business and home. Elected in 2024 as part of the “For Stronger Schools” slate, Schneider voted against the $1.1 billion budget that included a 14.5% homeowner tax hike. He also publicly challenged leadership over the arrest of a special needs parent, questioning Vice President Dejon Morris’s role in the incident. With 65 days to fill the vacancy, voters will decide his replacement in November’s election. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
