Makes supplemental appropriation of $3,000,000 to Division on Civil Rights.
S 2350 provides an additional $3 million in state funding specifically for the New Jersey Bias Investigation Access System (NJ BIAS) within the Division on Civil Rights (DCR). This supplemental appropriation directly affects the DCR and all state, county, and municipal law enforcement agencies that use the NJ BIAS system to track bias crimes. The funds are required to update the system's technology to ensure consistent and uniform tracking of bias incidents across all law enforcement levels. The bill mandates that any unspent funds at year-end carry forward for the same purpose, with no change to existing civil rights enforcement authority.
