ACR 130 New Jersey General Assembly · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Proposes amendment to Constitution to require each house of the Legislature to meet four times annually solely to vote on bills that provide property tax relief.

ACR 130 proposes a constitutional amendment requiring New Jersey's Legislature to hold four annual meetings - once per quarter - solely to vote on bills certified as providing property tax relief. These certified bills must lower property taxes without increasing revenue, and must address specific areas like pension reform, education funding, or local government spending. The amendment mandates that if a bill passes one legislative house, the other house must vote on it within 60 days, with the final meeting required at least 70 days before the legislative term ends. It does not require voting on all property tax bills or block consideration outside these quarterly sessions. The Legislature would designate a body to certify qualifying bills, ensuring they meet defined relief criteria.
