A 5008 New Jersey General Assembly · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Concerns distribution of 9-1-1 System and Emergency Response Trust Fund Account.

This bill expands the uses of New Jersey's 9-1-1 System and Emergency Response Trust Fund Account. It adds a new provision to fund recruitment and retention costs for first responders (like police, firefighters, and EMTs) directly. Additionally, it requires 5% of annual funds in the account to be allocated to the New Jersey EMS Task Force, a nonprofit organization that supports emergency medical services statewide. The changes ensure these critical emergency response costs are covered through dedicated state funding.
