"New Jersey Sovereignty Act"; places certain limitations on deployment of National Guard; directs law enforcement to maintain independence from federal government; requires reporting of certain federal government requests.

New Jersey's S 4950, the "New Jersey Sovereignty Act," restricts the deployment of the state's National Guard for active combat unless Congress has officially declared war or taken specific constitutional actions under Article I, Section 8. It also requires state law enforcement and government employees to report all federal requests for assistance to assess whether they comply with state sovereignty under the Tenth Amendment. The bill aims to prevent federal overreach by limiting National Guard deployment without explicit congressional authorization and mandating transparency for federal coordination requests. These provisions directly affect New Jersey's National Guard, state law enforcement agencies, and local government officials.
