AR 33 New Jersey General Assembly · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Urges President and Congress of US to enact legislation requiring certain delivery vehicles to have air-conditioning unit.

This Assembly Resolution (AR 33) urges the U.S. President and Congress to pass legislation requiring certain delivery vehicles to have air conditioning. It specifically targets box-style delivery vans and trucks (up to 18 feet long with walk-in cargo areas) used for commercial goods or service deliveries, as these vehicles often lack AC and pose heat risks to drivers. The resolution references the "Peggy Frank Memorial Act" (H.R. 8376) as a model, which would mandate retrofitting existing vehicles with AC within three years and require AC in all new delivery vehicles starting from enactment. New Jersey’s resolution seeks to expand this safety standard beyond USPS to all commercial delivery vehicles nationwide.
