Urges Congress to pass "Afghan Adjustment Act."

This New Jersey Assembly Resolution (AR 68) urges Congress to pass the bipartisan "Afghan Adjustment Act." It directly addresses Afghan allies who helped U.S. forces in Afghanistan, many of whom entered the U.S. under temporary humanitarian parole after the 2021 withdrawal but lack a path to permanent legal status. The resolution requests Congress enact legislation that would allow these evacuees to apply for permanent residency, similar to past laws for Cuban, Southeast Asian, and Iraqi allies. It does not create new law but formally asks federal lawmakers to advance this specific bill. The resolution cites 76,000 Afghans currently in temporary status as the key group affected.
