S 1266 New Jersey Senate · 2026-2027 Regular Session

Expands Division of State Police rank and grade titles.

This bill clarifies which State Police rank changes require Attorney General approval. It allows the Superintendent to adjust ranks for most personnel (including troopers, detectives, and supervisors) without approval, but mandates Attorney General sign-off for command staff at major and lieutenant colonel levels. All changes must stay within existing budget limits for the Division of State Police. (Note: The bill was withdrawn as it was covered by existing law.)
