The full plan is available at https://covid19.nj.gov/faqs/announcements/all-announcements/governor-murphy-announces-%E2%80%9Cthe-road-back:-restoring-economic-health-through-public-health%E2%80%9D#direct-link. The plan does not yet include dates as Governor Murphy's stay-at-home Executive Order, which has been in effect since March 21st, will remain in effect in its entirety until further notice. The governor said that the state would begin opening state-wise, as opposed to regionally, in "weeks ... not months." He has appointed a Governor’s Restart and Recovery Commission to determine how and which businesses could come back online; more info on the Commission is available at https://nj.gov/governor/admin/restartcommission.shtml. A one-page summary of the plan to reopen the economy of New Jersey is available at http://d31hzlhk6di2h5.cloudfront.net/20200427/db/2d/77/6c/2a8a498ff2edda855c3f456d/The_Road_Back_-_Restoring_Economic_Health_Through_Public_Health.pdf
