S 1271 New Jersey Senate · 2026-2027 Regular Session

Provides cancer and cardiovascular screenings to law enforcement officers; establishes fund; appropriates $20 million.

This bill amends a section of New Jersey's Revised Statutes to redirect $1 per traffic violation fine to existing state funds, including the Body Armor Replacement Fund and the New Jersey Spinal Cord Research Fund, and $3 per fine to the Forensic DNA Fund. It does not establish a new fund for cancer or cardiovascular screenings as suggested by the title, nor does it appropriate $20 million for such purposes. The provided bill text focuses solely on reallocating fine revenues to existing funds, with no mention of health screenings for law enforcement officers. The title and description provided do not align with the actual content of the bill text.
