Supports work of pregnancy resource centers and condemns harassment of pregnancy resource centers by AG.
This is an Assembly Resolution (not a law), expressing support for pregnancy resource centers in New Jersey. It specifically condemns Attorney General Matthew Platkin for issuing broad subpoenas to these centers, which require ten years of documents about their operations and donors. The resolution highlights that these centers provided over $3.6 million in free services and goods (like pregnancy tests, diapers, and baby supplies) to 23,000 people in 2022. It characterizes the subpoenas as an "overbroad" misuse of power targeting centers offering abortion alternatives. The resolution has no legal effect but serves as a symbolic statement from the Assembly.
