AJR 66 New Jersey General Assembly · 2026-2027 Regular Session

Designates May 6th of each year as "Nurse's Day."

AJR 66 is a ceremonial resolution designating May 6th of each year as "Nurse's Day" in New Jersey. It directly honors nurses - over 141,000 registered nurses and thousands of nurse practitioners/licensed practical nurses in the state - by recognizing their contributions to public health. The resolution requests the Governor issue an annual proclamation encouraging public observance of the day, but it creates no new laws, funding, or obligations. This is purely symbolic, celebrating nurses' roles in patient care without altering healthcare policy or practice.
