Urges Congress to provide aid to Haitian migrants.
This non-binding New Jersey Assembly Resolution (AR 65) urges Congress to provide aid to Haitian migrants. It specifically calls for congressional funding to support frontline organizations assisting Haitian migrants with shelter, legal services, food aid, and medical care. The resolution cites Haiti's ongoing political instability, gang violence, natural disasters, and humanitarian crises as the reasons for this request. It does not create new laws or allocate state funds, but serves as a symbolic appeal to federal lawmakers. The resolution was co-sponsored by Assemblywomen Speight and Sumter and will be sent to relevant officials including New Jersey's congressional delegation.
