Authorizes State employees to take administrative leave days in observance of Eid al-Fitr and Eid al-Adha; requires school districts to permit students excused absences for observance of Eid al-Fitr and Eid al-Adha.

This bill requires New Jersey state employees (including those at Rutgers and public universities) to be granted one additional paid leave day per year for observing Eid al-Fitr and Eid al-Adha, beyond their standard administrative leave. It also mandates that public school districts record absences for these holidays as excused, ensuring students aren’t penalized for missing class due to religious observance. The policy prevents such absences from appearing on transcripts or affecting eligibility for awards, tests, or graduation requirements when a parent’s written excuse is provided. It explicitly adds Eid al-Fitr and Eid al-Adha to the list of religious holidays for which student absences must be excused. The bill takes effect immediately upon enactment.
