Adds Sons of The American Legion to list of organizations whose representatives receive paid leaves of absence to attend State and national conventions.

This bill adds the Sons of The American Legion to a list of veteran organizations whose authorized representatives in New Jersey state, county, and municipal government jobs can receive paid leave to attend conventions. It modifies existing law (R.S.38:23-2) to include this group while removing two outdated organizations from the list. Public employees representing eligible groups may take up to five paid days annually for convention attendance, including travel time, but unused leave expires each year. The change directly affects government workers serving as official representatives for these veteran organizations.
