why does the state of NJ have many acting cabinet members and high-level officials under the Mikie Sherrill administration?
Acting and Interim Cabinet Officials
• Susan Ochs – Acting Commissioner, Banking and Insurance
• Joseph Ribsam – Acting Commissioner, Children and Families
• Shirley Emehelu – Acting State Comptroller (also named Acting Secretary of State following the resignation of Lt. Gov. Dale Caldwell in September 2026)
• Ed Potosnak – Acting Commissioner, Environmental Protection
• Margo Chaly – Acting Secretary of Higher Education
• Kevin Jarvis – Acting Commissioner, Labor and Workforce Development (with Michael Marcich previously named as interim commissioner during initial selection)
• Rosalie Johnson – Acting Administrator, Motor Vehicle Commission
• Jeanne Hengemuhle – Acting Superintendent, State Police
• Aaron Binder – Acting State Treasurer (Sherrill's choice for the position)
NJ Senate has had 9+ months now to confirm. Acting officials can do the same as confirmed officials. What is the point of the NJ constitution?
