Establishes crimes against elected public officials and immediate families; provides police protection in instances of crime against elected public official and immediate family.

This bill amends New Jersey's assault statute to classify attacks on elected public officials and their immediate family members as aggravated assault. It directly affects elected officials (like mayors, council members, and state legislators) and their spouses, domestic partners, parents, siblings, children, and stepchildren. The key change adds a new definition to the assault law, automatically upgrading simple assaults against these protected individuals to aggravated assault, which carries harsher penalties. The bill excludes attacks on officials within mental health facilities or while they are patients/residents. This is a criminal law reform, not a new program, focusing on legal definitions rather than procedural details.
