Celebrates career of New Jersey resident John Sterling.
SJR 65 is a ceremonial resolution honoring John Sterling, a longtime New York Yankees radio broadcaster who retired in April 2024 after 36 seasons. It celebrates his career - specifically his 5,420 Yankees games broadcast from 1989 to 2019, including iconic moments like Derek Jeter’s 3,000th hit - and requests the Governor issue a proclamation recognizing his impact on baseball broadcasting. As a Bergen County, New Jersey resident, Sterling is acknowledged for his decades of service to fans, though the resolution has no legal effect or direct impact on policies or constituents.
