AR 23 New Jersey General Assembly · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Establishes special committee of General Assembly entitled "New Jersey Nursing Home Pandemic Response Investigation Committee."

This Assembly Resolution (AR 23) establishes a special seven-member committee called the "New Jersey Nursing Home Pandemic Response Investigation Committee" to examine how state actions during the COVID-19 pandemic affected nursing homes, residents, families, and employees. The committee, appointed by the Speaker of the Assembly with bipartisan input, has broad investigative powers - including issuing subpoenas, holding hearings, and gathering evidence - to review state policies, executive orders, and regulations related to nursing home care. It will operate until its investigation concludes, reporting findings and recommendations to the public and Legislature. The resolution does not create new laws or policies but authorizes a formal review of past state responses.
