SJR 150 New Jersey Senate · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Recognizes Orange Heart Medal in NJ.

This bill (SJR 150) is a symbolic resolution recognizing the Orange Heart Medal in New Jersey. It formally honors Vietnam War veterans exposed to Agent Orange during the conflict, acknowledging their service and health impacts without creating new legal rights or benefits. The resolution directs the state to recognize the medal, which is distributed by the private Orange Heart Medal Project to affected veterans or their surviving spouses. It does not alter veterans' benefits but aligns New Jersey with Tennessee’s similar recognition of these veterans.
