Requires racial and gender diversity in membership to be considered for appointments to certain boards and commissions established by statute.

This bill requires New Jersey appointing authorities (like the Governor, Senate President, or Assembly Speaker) to prioritize racial and gender diversity when filling positions on boards, commissions, task forces, or other multi-member bodies created by statute. It mandates that appointments reflect the racial and gender makeup of the state's overall population as a "primary consideration," unless specific circumstances or existing statutory requirements conflict. The requirement applies to all such bodies established by law, both existing and future, and takes effect immediately upon passage. It does not mandate specific diversity quotas but sets diversity as a key factor in selection decisions.
