Directs Secretary of Higher Education to establish Legislative Youth Council and select institution of higher education in this State as host; makes changes to council's structure to provide flexibility in activities and operations.

This bill establishes the New Jersey Legislative Youth Council to engage youth in policymaking. It directs the Secretary of Higher Education to select a state higher education institution to host the council, which will include 40 youth members (ages 18-25, residents for at least 10 years) representing each legislative district, plus four non-voting legislative advisors. The host institution appoints a coordinator (receiving an annual stipend) to manage operations, arrange policy engagement opportunities, and submit biennial reports to the Legislature. Key changes include raising the age range from 15-23 to 18-25, lowering residency requirements, removing mandatory subject areas for research, and shifting from annual to biennial reporting. The council provides youth perspectives on issues affecting them to lawmakers and policymakers.
