Timeline
Loretta Weinberg (born February 6, 1935) is an American Democratic Party politician, who served as a member of the New Jersey Senate from 2005-2022, where she represented the 37th Legislative District.
She also served as Senate Majority Leader.
Weinberg served in the General Assembly before being selected to replace retiring Senator Byron Baer.
From 1975 to 1985, she was the Assistant Administrator of Bergen County.
She was elected to the Teaneck Township Council in 1990, completing her council term in 1994.
Besides her service in the Legislature, Weinberg has also been active in community organizations including the American Red Cross, Shelter Our Sisters, the Bergen Family Center, AARP Teaneck Chapter, New Jersey Network of Women Elected Officials, National Organization of Women Legislators and the National Council of Jewish Women.
Weinberg has been recognized as "Legislator Worker of the Year" by the National Association of Social Workers - New Jersey Chapter, The "Friend of New Jersey's Children Award" by the American Academy of Pediatrics - New Jersey Chapter and the "Legislator of the Year Award" by the New Jersey Center for Outreach and Services for the Autism Community (COSAC).
She has been selected by Marquis Who's Who for inclusion in the "Who's Who of American Women List".
Weinberg was born in New York City and graduated from the University of California, Berkeley with a B.A. in History.
She has completed all course work for a Master of Public Administration from Fairleigh Dickinson University.
Weinberg was chosen by Democratic committee members in March 1992 to fill the seat vacated in the Assembly by D. Bennett Mazur, who had resigned due to illness.
In the Assembly, Weinberg served as the Majority Conference Leader from 2002 to 2005, Deputy Minority Leader from 1996 to 2001 and Assistant Minority Leader from 1994 to 1995.
Weinberg served as the Chairwoman of the Health and Human Services Committee and Vice Chairwoman of the Family, Women, and Children's Services Committee.
Additionally, she also served on the New Jersey Historical Commission, Legislative Services Commission and the New Jersey Israel Commission.
Some of her past Committee assignments include the Community Services Committee, the Veteran Affairs Committee and, most recently, the Consumer and Regulated Professions Committee.
Kornacki identified a number of "potential successors" to Baer, including Hackensack Police Chief and former Assemblyman Charles "Ken" Zisa, who had briefly mounted a challenge to Baer's 2003 re-nomination before withdrawing it in what some have said was a deal brokered by Bergen County Democratic Organization Chairman Joe Ferriero; Bergen County Freeholder Valerie Huttle; Englewood Mayor Michael Wildes; and Weinberg.
"But," wrote Kornacki, "whether Weinberg, who backed Zisa in his brief bid to topple Baer last year, does want it [the Senate seat] is an open question."
Sixteen months later, that question appeared to have been answered.
In a January 7, 2004 article for PoliticsNJ.com, political reporter Steve Kornacki wrote, "Depending on whom you listen to, the 74-year-old Baer will step down sometime between the next few months and January 2008, when his term expires."
She served in the General Assembly, the lower house of the New Jersey Legislature, until 2005.
Weinberg ran for the New Jersey Senate after fellow District 37 legislator Byron Baer resigned from the Senate on September 8, 2005.
From the outset of his term, the resignation of the often-ailing Baer had been the subject of much speculation and maneuvering.
In a May 3, 2005 PoliticsNJ.com article, Kornacki reported, "Weinberg essentially admitted to striking a deal with Ferriero. She said the chairman agreed to back her for [Assembly] majority leader, while she pledged to support a candidate of his choosing to replace state Senator Byron Barer when the 75-year-old steps down...some say she also had pledged support to Valerie Vainieri Huttle, a freeholder, for the Senate spot."
Following Baer's resignation, Ferriero backed Zisa to fill the vacancy, as expected.
Huttle prepared to challenge Zisa for the nomination.
Weinberg then let it be known she was interested, and on September 11, 2005, United States Senator Jon Corzine, the Democratic candidate for Governor of New Jersey, endorsed Weinberg for Baer's seat.
Huttle bowed out of the race and endorsed Weinberg.
The Bergen County Democratic Organization caucused on September 15, 2005, to select a candidate.
In balloting to replace Baer on an interim basis, Weinberg lost by a 114-110 margin to Zisa.
In a separate vote, by a 112-111 margin, Zisa was selected over Weinberg to be the party's candidate on the November ballot.
Though she congratulated Zisa in remarks made after results were announced at the September 15 caucus, Weinberg stated that inclusion of several uncounted ballots might change the results in her favor.
Weinberg filed a legal challenge to the caucus results to have the unopened ballots included, which she believed were cast for her.
On September 20, 2005, New Jersey Superior Court Judge Peter Doyne refused to interfere in what he held was a party matter and upheld the decision of the election mediator, Rep. Steve Rothman, to exclude the five ballots.
On September 23, 2005, an Appellate Court panel sent the case back to Judge Doyne, ruling that he did have the authority to address a party issue and that the five uncounted ballots cast by Tenafly Democratic Committee members could be counted irrespective of the failure to file their names within the specified 30-day window.
Weinberg was the Democratic nominee for Lieutenant Governor of New Jersey in the 2009 election, having been selected by Governor Jon Corzine as his running mate on July 24.
Corzine and Weinberg were defeated by the Republican ticket of Chris Christie and Kim Guadagno on November 3, 2009.
Weinberg serves on the Senate Health, Human Services and Senior Citizens Committee (as Vice-Chair) and on the State Government Committee (also as Vice-Chair).
She is a former member of the Senate Commerce Committee and the Senate Judiciary Committee.
On January 13, 2020, Weinberg announced her retirement from politics in January 2022 when her current term expires.
Weinberg resigned on January 7, 2022, four days before the end of her term, to join a board of directors role at Horizon Blue Cross Blue Shield of New Jersey.
