Establishes "New Jersey Eviction Crisis Task Force."
S 3040 creates a 23-member "New Jersey Eviction Crisis Task Force" to study eviction trends and impacts across the state. The task force, including government officials, legislators, legal experts, and tenant advocates, will examine causes of eviction, its effects on families and communities, and potential policy solutions. It must submit findings and recommendations to the Governor and Legislature within 18 months of forming. This bill does not change current laws but aims to inform future housing policies by analyzing eviction data and existing programs. The task force will expire once its report is issued.
