Designates May of each year as "Better Hearing and Speech Month."
AJR 73 designates May of each year as "Better Hearing and Speech Month" in New Jersey to raise awareness about communication disorders. The resolution asks the Governor to issue an annual proclamation encouraging public officials and residents to observe the month with activities supporting individuals with hearing and speech disabilities. It does not create new laws, funding, or requirements - it is a symbolic designation focused solely on increasing public awareness. The bill directly affects all New Jersey residents by promoting community engagement around communication health issues.
