		ASSEMBLYWOMAN HECK: Charlotte has made an excellent point, as far as we are concerned, because she is looking at an evaluation of a system that seems to be stuck.
		ASSEMBLYWOMAN VANDERVALK: I would also like to address your point, which is very well taken, but a lot of hospitals, and even some of the private clinics, will specify a certain period of time where they will have screening programs, and the cost comes down dramatically.
		I think Assemblywoman Vandervalk opened with some of her concerns about the length of clinical trials and the problems we are enduring already.

		The Assembly approved the plan in June 2002 and the Senate in May; in both houses it had strong bipartisan support.

	Gabert and Hering for State Assembly (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
		“John Rooney and Charlotte Vandervalk’s votes for increased state spending, tens of billions in new state debt with no public vote, liberal social programs including affirmative action and new welfare handouts are exactly the opposite of what hard-working Northern Bergen County taxpayers expect their legislators to produce,” said Gabbert.
		Hering said that Vandervalk’s liberal voting record on issues from abortion to the recently passed “Domestic Partnership Law” and sponsorship – alone among all Republicans – for re-establishing the “Public Advocate” Department would be a major issue in the campaign.
		Under Charlotte’s legislation, which Rooney was one of only four Republican votes in favor, the state government will gain a host of new powers to interfere with home rule and local control of zoning and that’s a direct assault on our communities,” Hering added.

	Jeff Gabbert and Ken Hering for State Assembly (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
		Gabbert explained that towns in the 39th District which Vandervalk and Rooney have represented for nearly 40 years combined “received virtually nothing” from the massive bond sale, which was done with no referendum as required by the State Constitution and which poured nearly every dollar into heavily Democratic Urban School Districts.
		The State Supreme Court ruled that the debt could be sold, but that the state is not required to appropriate money to pay this debt and a failure to repay these bonds is not a default against the State of New Jersey.
		Vandervalk defended her vote for the $8.6 Billion in School Construction debt, saying that “every district benefited” even though nearly $7 Billion of the money went to pay 100 percent of the cost of new schools in 30 so-called “Abbott” Low Income school districts.

	Alive & Kicking's fastfax: News That Matters to People with HIV/AIDS
		State Assemblywoman Charlotte Vandervalk (R), the bill's sponsor and chair of the Health Committee, said she wants a system in which the state health department would telephone each person whose name is reported to the state HIV and AIDS registry and ask them for the names of their sexual or drug use partners.
		When it was suggested that a phone call from the state health department to someone's home could cause problems for people who haven't figured out how to tell their loved ones, Vandervalk said the state would be "very sensitized to what could go wrong.
		But if Vandervalk's understanding is correct -- that the state would contact individuals after their names are reported to the health department -- it would mark a huge change in procedures, some say.
