Honors Irish contributions to U.S. independence.

This New Jersey Assembly Resolution honors the contributions of Irish immigrants and their descendants to the American Revolutionary War. The document highlights specific individuals, such as soldier John Fitzgerald and spy Lydia Barrington Darragh, to illustrate the roles played by Irish heritage in military and intelligence efforts. It also notes the political influence of figures like William Paterson in shaping the U.S. government and draws parallels to Irish independence movements. The resolution formally recognizes these historical contributions on the 250th anniversary of the United States and directs copies of the text to Irish government officials and U.S. Congress members.
