Strongly condemns decision of President Trump to permit immigration enforcement actions in sensitive locations such as schools and hospitals.
SCR 57 is a New Jersey concurrent resolution condemning President Trump's decision to rescind a federal policy that prohibited immigration enforcement in sensitive locations like schools, hospitals, places of worship, and shelters. It specifically targets the Trump administration's reversal of Biden-era guidance that protected these areas, which had been in place since 2011. The resolution states this change deters immigrant families - including U.S. citizen children - from accessing essential services like healthcare, education, and disaster relief. As a symbolic statement (not a law), it reaffirms New Jersey's commitment to equal access to services regardless of immigration status and will be sent to the President, Homeland Security Secretary, and New Jersey's congressional delegation.
