Provides for immediate issuance of marriage and civil union licenses.

This bill (S 2990) removes the current 72-hour waiting period for issuing marriage and civil union licenses in New Jersey. It requires licensing officers to issue licenses immediately upon application filing, rather than after a mandatory 72-hour delay. The change directly affects couples applying for marriage or civil union licenses statewide, eliminating the need to wait or seek emergency court waivers. The bill amends New Jersey Statute 37:1-4 and takes effect immediately.
