Declares racism a public health crisis in New Jersey.

This Senate resolution (SR 50) formally declares racism a public health crisis in New Jersey. It directly affects all New Jersey residents, particularly Black and brown communities facing documented health disparities linked to systemic racism. The resolution cites evidence showing racism contributes to higher rates of chronic illness, maternal mortality, asthma in children, and trauma from police encounters. It does not create new laws or funding but calls for state agencies to recognize racism's role in health inequities. The resolution urges the Health Commissioner and Attorney General to address these disparities.
