S 3492 New Jersey Senate · 2026-2027 Regular Session

Requires use of email for certain community notification under Megan's Law.

This bill (S 3492) requires New Jersey's Attorney General to provide email notification options for community members who want to be alerted when specific sex offender registry updates occur. It directly affects residents who request email alerts for sex offenders registering new addresses in different counties or zip codes, or when other registry information changes. Under the bill, individuals can choose to receive these email alerts for up to three counties or zip codes of their choice. The email notification method supplements existing community notification practices under Megan's Law but does not change the underlying requirements for sex offender registration.
