Gov. Murphy Unveils Ethics Reforms During Visit to Rutgers

 Gov. Phil Murphy said he and his staff have been practically building a shrine around a fine bottle of bourbon he received as a gift.

Here’s the sobering truth, though: Murphy and his fellow executive branch employees are exempt by state law from taking one drop, let alone accepting any gifts that are related to their public duties.

“We are in the process of returning the bottle,” he said. “I’ll speak for myself – I’m a Murphy, by the way – I orbit the bottle several times a day until we have it figured out exactly where we’re sending it back to.”
