I actually don't know where the NJ bill currently stands. There is a NJ Cottage Food Facebook page though and they probably can provide much more information.

Any idea on what is the status for NJ? I really want to start my baking business but it’s really hard to find rental kitchen in Central NJ. If only they would allow me to bake out of my own home!

Unfortunately, I don’t think Montana currently has a Cottage Food Law at this time.

Rhode Island does not currently have a Cottage Food Law that would enable you to start a food business from your home kitchen. You may want to take a look at this article about what one civilian is doing to change the law in Louisiana.

You know, I don’t know if it will help at all but a few months ago I did an interview with the woman (civilian) who helped push the Cottage Food Bill through in Washington State. http://smallfoodbiz.com/2012/08/16/the-woman-behind-washingtons-cottage-food-law/
