Designates August of each year as "Black Business Month" in NJ.

SJR 54 designates August each year as "Black Business Month" in New Jersey to recognize and encourage support for Black-owned businesses. The resolution requires the Governor to issue an annual proclamation and directs the New Jersey Business Action Center to publicize the observance, aiming to highlight the economic contributions of these businesses. This symbolic measure affects all New Jersey residents by promoting engagement with over 76,000 Black-owned businesses in the state, which collectively support jobs and address racial wealth gaps, as noted in the bill's supporting context.
