Allows persons who qualify under Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program to become law enforcement and corrections officers.

This bill changes New Jersey law to allow individuals with Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) status to work as law enforcement and corrections officers. It amends statutes requiring officers to be U.S. citizens by adding "or has been granted relief under DACA" as an eligibility requirement for state correctional officers, county corrections officers, municipal police officers, and juvenile corrections officers. The bill also specifies that DACA-eligible officers appointed under these changes may carry firearms while on duty. It directly affects DACA recipients seeking these public safety roles, removing a prior citizenship barrier. The change aligns New Jersey's hiring standards with federal DACA protections for qualifying individuals.
