AJR 44 New Jersey General Assembly · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Designates June of each year as "Immigrant Heritage Month."

AJR 44 designates June of each year as "Immigrant Heritage Month" in New Jersey to recognize the economic and cultural contributions of immigrants to the state. The resolution requests the Governor to issue an annual proclamation encouraging public officials and citizens to observe the month with activities celebrating immigrant heritage. This symbolic resolution does not create new laws or alter policies but highlights New Jersey's status as a state with one of the largest immigrant populations in the U.S., including immigrants who make up over 20% of residents and contribute significantly to the workforce and entrepreneurship.
