On Monday, for the first time, the governor said he supports making the changes.
"I spoke to the Senate President (Steve Sweeney) on Saturday and, without getting too much into the weeds, no pun intended, on the notification question, I personally think that's a step in the right direction," said Murphy when asked by a reporter.
The bill as Murphy signed it last month prohibited a police officer from notifying parents if their teenage son or daughter (under 21) was found with booze or weed for the first time. For a first violation, the officer could only give a written warning to the teen, and the officer recorded their name, address and birth date.
A police officer could only notify parents if police found an underage teen with booze/pot a second time.
Senate minority leader Jon Bramnick (R-Union County) said Monday he was pleased to see Murphy consider amending the law.
