AJR 73 New Jersey General Assembly · 2026-2027 Regular Session

Designates May of each year as "Older Americans Month" in New Jersey.

AJR 73 designates May of each year as "Older Americans Month" in New Jersey through a symbolic resolution. It requests the Governor issue an annual proclamation encouraging public recognition of older residents' contributions to community life, civic engagement, and the workforce. The bill does not create new programs, funding, or policy changes - it solely establishes a formal month of acknowledgment. This follows a national tradition that began in 1980, focusing on honoring older Americans' ongoing value and rededicating efforts to support their well-being.
