Urges State citizens to stay up-to-date on vaccinations.
This non-binding Senate resolution (SR 127) urges all New Jersey residents to stay up-to-date on vaccinations, particularly in response to rising measles cases. It cites declining vaccination rates - especially among school-age children - and notes that 94% of 2025 measles cases involved unvaccinated or unknown-status individuals. The resolution asks the state Department of Health to create and distribute vaccination awareness materials but does not impose new requirements or penalties. It serves as a symbolic call to action, not a law, to promote community immunity and prevent disease outbreaks.
