Requires sign language interpreters for sessions and committee meetings of Legislature.

This bill requires New Jersey's Legislature to provide sign language interpreters for all in-person and remote sessions of the Senate and General Assembly, as well as for committee meetings and hearings. It directly affects people who are deaf or hard of hearing by ensuring real-time access to legislative proceedings. The Department of Human Services will coordinate interpreter services with the Office of Legislative Services, beginning 7 months after the bill's effective date for full sessions and 25 months later for committee meetings. The requirement applies to all meetings conducted in any format.
