Grants certain leaves of absence for Vietnam Veterans of America conventions.
This bill amends New Jersey law to add "Vietnam Veterans of America" to the list of organizations whose authorized representatives can receive paid leave to attend state or national conventions. It directly affects state, county, and municipal employees who serve as official representatives of Vietnam Veterans of America. The law specifies that such employees may take up to five total paid days per year for convention attendance (including travel time), with unused leave not carrying over to the next year. The bill also removes two outdated organizations from the existing list.
