Requires Silver Alert System receive same broadcast alerts as Amber Alert System.

This bill (S 2802) requires New Jersey's Silver Alert System to use identical broadcast procedures as the Amber Alert System for media outlets. Specifically, participating radio and TV stations must play a distinctive tone followed by "This is a Missing Person Silver Alert" and include the missing person's description and contact information. Alerts must be broadcast as frequently as possible for the first three hours, then at intervals determined by law enforcement and media. The bill directly affects law enforcement agencies coordinating alerts, media outlets, and missing persons with cognitive impairments (the target of Silver Alerts). It mandates procedural alignment with Amber Alerts without changing the criteria for issuing Silver Alerts.
