A 5987 New Jersey General Assembly · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Amends Fiscal Year 2026 annual appropriations act to reassign and clarify distribution of certain funds.*

This bill corrects a budget error in New Jersey's Fiscal Year 2026 appropriations by reassigning $25,000 in Community Resources funding from a misidentified American Legion Post to the correct recipient: Neptune American Legion Post #346 in Neptune Township. It directly affects the Neptune Post by redirecting funds previously intended for an out-of-state post (Post #46). The key mechanism is amending a specific line item in the appropriations act to name the Neptune location and adjust the allocation. The bill makes no new policy changes but ensures funds reach the intended local organization.
