Establishes bipartisan task force to study response to COVID-19 in New Jersey.

This bill establishes the New Jersey COVID-19 Response Task Force, a bipartisan group of eight members appointed by legislative leaders (two each by Senate and Assembly majority and minority leaders). The task force will study New Jersey's pandemic response over 18 months, examining government communication, impacts on nursing homes, children's education/health, crime rates, financial effects on businesses/residents, and comparisons with other states' approaches. It must hold at least three public hearings statewide and submit findings and recommendations to the Legislature and Governor. The task force expires after submitting its report, with no direct policy changes enacted by the bill itself.
