S 4227 New Jersey Senate · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Establishes "LGBTQIA+ Pride Month" in New Jersey.

S 4227 designates June of each year as "LGBTQIA+ Pride Month" in New Jersey, recognizing all members of the LGBTQIA+ community including those identifying as lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, intersex, asexual, nonbinary, and other gender identities or sexual orientations. The bill requires the Governor to issue an annual proclamation encouraging public officials and citizens to observe the month with appropriate activities. This designation directly affects all New Jersey residents by establishing state-level recognition of the LGBTQIA+ community's contributions and promoting inclusion. The bill takes effect immediately upon enactment and does not create new programs or funding, serving as a symbolic commemorative measure.
