On the day of the announcement, he issued the following statement:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cAfter a half-century in the Legislature, it\u2019s time for me to say goodbye. My service to the state of New Jersey and its great people will end when this legislative session concludes at the end of the year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cNow, listen, before you get any ideas, no, I am not dying \u2026 but if you or someone you know is, please call Codey Funeral Home in Caldwell or Codey &amp; Mackey in Boonton. (What, you thought I was gonna stop telling jokes on this of all days?) Seriously, it has been an incredible run and I\u2019m lucky and grateful to have my health. I won my first race in November of 1973 and was sworn in the following January, making it a perfect 50-year circle we\u2019re closing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cI\u2019ve been your Assemblyman, your Senator and your Governor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cNow, it\u2019s time to trade all those trips to Trenton for more time as a husband, father and grandpa. I\u2019ll still be running my businesses &#8211; an insurance agency and those funeral homes &#8211; but I\u2019m ready for something different.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWhy? Because it\u2019s time. Time to step aside and watch the next generation do their thing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cI\u2019m forever grateful for the opportunity to have served the people of this state, especially those of you in the City of Orange and my neighbors in Essex and Morris counties. I\u2019m grateful for the friendships I have made with my colleagues. And I\u2019m grateful for the love, support and patience of my family, especially my wife, Mary Jo, and my sons, Kevin and Christopher.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThe people have always been the best part of every job I\u2019ve had. I was born and raised in a funeral home, and that life taught me lessons that served me well as I served you. How to listen. How to be compassionate. How to help.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cI\u2019m proud of the work I\u2019ve done in the Legislature &#8211; as New Jersey\u2019s longest-serving legislator &#8211; and during my time as New Jersey\u2019s 53rd governor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cI\u2019ve fought to pass laws that matter to all New Jerseyans, especially people who don\u2019t always have a voice or the ability to be heard. From mental health and addiction services to bans on indoor smoking and championing our toughest-in-the-nation gun laws. I\u2019ve fought for who and what I believe in, even when it wasn\u2019t easy. I\u2019ve made lifelong friends and lifelong enemies &#8211; and I\u2019m proud of both lists!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cAs I prepare to step away, please know you all gave me a lifetime of rewards big and small. I loved speaking with people and helping people, even when a staffer or a State Trooper was pushing me out a door toward another commitment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThat\u2019s the thing about funeral directors and legislators. They\u2019re always on the job, and you can\u2019t allow yourself to be pushed out a door when people are hurting or need someone to hear them. I have always loved listening to you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cSome of my best memories &#8211; my dearest memories &#8211; are wandering into a diner late at night after a legislative session or a basketball game. So often I\u2019d meet someone who recognized me and wanted to know if I could help. I\u2019d order a piece of lemon meringue pie and pick at it while I listened. You can\u2019t believe the connections and friendships I forged over lemon meringue pie. Those connections are why I will stay deeply engaged in the community.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cFifty years is a long time. I have seen a lot of changes in the Legislature and the governor\u2019s office. But one thing that hasn\u2019t changed is the importance of public service. Public service is about making a difference in the lives of people. It\u2019s about working together to create a better future for everyone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cI\u2019ll miss that &#8211; the hope and promise of doing something great for people every day. And I\u2019ll miss you &#8211; the people who voted for me and the people who didn\u2019t. You made me better as a legislator and as a person.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cSo after 50 years, let me say this: There can be no greater privilege than representing people who trust you as you have trusted me. God Bless you all.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Assemblywoman Mila Jasey (D-Essex, Morris) issued the following statement in response to former Governor, and current State Senator, Richard J. Codey\u2019s retirement announcement:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cGovernor Richard J. Codey is a New Jersey icon with whom I have had the honor of serving as his district mate for the last 16 years. His contributions to our state over the past half-century as Governor and Senator have left an indelible mark and made him one of the most well-known and well-respected of all of our state\u2019s elected officials. His mental health advocacy was transformational, ending the stigma and improving services dramatically.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cGuv, and my friend and colleague Assemblyman John McKeon, brought me to the party literally and figuratively. When they sought a partner in 2007, they asked me and gave me the opportunity to serve in the Assembly for 16 years and be included in the best legislative team in the state.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cGovernor Codey\u2019s retirement follows 50 continuous years of public service. New Jersey is a far better place for having had the benefit of his leadership, and I for having the benefit of his friendship. I extend my heartfelt wishes to Governor Codey, his wife Mary Jo, and their family as he begins the next chapter. It is truly the end of an era.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>TRENTON &#8211; One of New Jersey\u2019s longest serving public officials is leaving the stage.
