SCR 15 New Jersey Senate · 2026-2027 Regular Session

Directs SCI to examine human trafficking activity at certain places of business.

SCR 15 is a concurrent resolution directing New Jersey's State Commission of Investigation (SCI) to examine human trafficking activity specifically at businesses employing massage and bodywork therapists. These businesses are subject to existing registration and licensing requirements under state law. The SCI must complete its investigation within two years, issue a report with findings and recommendations to the Governor and Legislature, and refer any evidence of trafficking to the Attorney General. The resolution does not create new laws but mandates a review to assess whether current regulations effectively address trafficking risks in this sector.
