SJR 63 New Jersey Senate · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Designates fourth Saturday of September each year as "New Jersey Hunting and Fishing Day."

SJR 63 designates the fourth Saturday of September each year as "New Jersey Hunting and Fishing Day" to recognize these activities' importance. It requires the Governor to issue an annual proclamation encouraging public participation and directs the Division of Fish and Wildlife to publicize the day and coordinate it with at least one of the state's existing free fishing days. The bill directly affects New Jersey residents, wildlife agencies, and conservation programs by promoting hunting and fishing engagement. It does not create new regulations but establishes a recurring observance to highlight these activities' role in recreation, economic activity, and wildlife conservation funding.
