Urges Congress to call constitutional convention to consider reproductive health care rights.
AJR 91 is a New Jersey joint resolution urging Congress to call a constitutional convention to consider amending the U.S. Constitution to protect reproductive health care rights. It specifically seeks a nationwide standard for rights including access to contraception, abortion, and pregnancy decisions, rather than state-by-state laws. The resolution does not create new laws or directly affect anyone - it is a procedural request to Congress, citing the Dobbs decision as a reason for federal action. It emphasizes that a constitutional amendment, if ratified by 3/4 of states, would ensure consistent access to reproductive care across all states. The bill is currently pending in the Assembly Community Development and Women's Affairs Committee.
