AJR 136 New Jersey General Assembly · 2026-2027 Regular Session

Designates February 4th of each year as "Women and Girls in Sports Day" in New Jersey.

AJR 136 is a commemorative resolution designating February 4th of each year as "Women and Girls in Sports Day" in New Jersey. It requests the Governor to issue an annual proclamation encouraging public officials and citizens to observe the day with activities celebrating women and girls' contributions to sports. The resolution acknowledges ongoing gender disparities in sports access and resources but does not create new programs, funding, or legal requirements. It aligns with the nationally recognized "National Girls and Women in Sports Day" observed on the same date. This is a symbolic recognition effort with no direct policy changes or new obligations.
