Timeline
Gary Steven Schaer (born September 11, 1951) is an American Democratic Party politician who represents the 36th Legislative District in the New Jersey General Assembly since he took office on January 10, 2006.
He also serves on the Passaic, New Jersey City Council where he is the council president.
Schaer is the first Orthodox Jew in the New Jersey Legislature.
Schaer has served on the Passaic City Council since 1995, including being the council resident off-and-on since 1997.
Schaer unsuccessfully ran for Mayor of Passaic in 1997 finishing behind incumbent Margie Semler and councilman Samuel Rivera.
He served as a Commissioner on the Board of Education for the Passaic County Technical Institute from 1999 to 2003 and was a commissioner on the Passaic Housing Authority from 1992 to 1996.
In March 2023, Schaer was hired as the executive director of the Passaic County Improvement Authority.
Schaer represents the 36th District, a district consisting of only the City of Passaic in Passaic County in the 2001 and 2011 apportionments and Bergen County (Nutley in Essex County was a part of the district in the 2001 apportionment); his predecessor DiGaetano has also been a resident of Passaic.
District leaders attempt to provide geographic balance when picking candidates.
Schaer is the first Orthodox Jew to serve in the New Jersey Legislature.
In situations in which the legislature is in session on Saturday, the Jewish Sabbath, when the dictates of his Orthodox Jewish faith prohibit him from participating in forbidden forms of work, he has appointed an aide to formally cast a ballot on his behalf, a policy permitted by the Assembly's rules, as long as the legislator is in the building.
He has been a Director of Passaic's Urban Enterprise Zone since 2002.
Schaer was elected to the Assembly on November 8, 2005, and took the seat of Republican Paul DiGaetano, who did not run for re-election and had held the seat in the Assembly continuously since 1992.
In May 2008, Schaer became the acting mayor of Passaic upon the resignation of Rivera, who had won election to the office in 2001, as a result of Rivera pleading guilty on corruption charges.
Though he considered running for the remainder of the term, Schaer declined to seek election to the unexpired term and was succeeded by Alex Blanco.
He is a Trustee of St. Mary's Hospital.
