 New Jersey Gov. Phil Murphy's administration agreed to pay nearly $53 million to the families of veterans home COVID-19 victims.

The state of New Jersey has agreed to pay a nearly $53 million settlement to the families of 119 residents of the state’s military veteran facilities who died during the early stages of the COVID-19 pandemic, according to reports.

Each of the families will receive an average of $445,000, to be determined in future arbitration proceedings, according to an administrative official who confirmed the payout to NJ.com. The total amount of the settlement is $52,955,000.

  1. There will likely be a caveat stating if families accept the money, then they agree the State was not legally culpable and open to further lawsuits.

  2. How much did the state of New York pay to the families whose
    loved ones were sent to their death ( 15,000 ) by Cuomo.

  3. Who is the state of New Jersey and who's money are they paying out? Think about that.
