A 1580 New Jersey General Assembly · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Requires Commission on Human Trafficking to identify methods to prevent human trafficking through online gaming platforms.

This bill requires New Jersey's Commission on Human Trafficking to investigate how traffickers use online gaming and social media platforms to target victims, especially children, and develop prevention strategies. The commission, which already evaluates trafficking laws and victim services, must add this specific research to its annual duties and recommend new legislation to implement solutions. It does not create immediate new laws but directs the commission to propose concrete changes based on its findings. The bill affects the existing 15-member commission, not the public directly, by expanding its research focus to digital platforms.
