Bill > ACR88

This Concurrent Resolution proposes an amendment to the New Jersey State Constitution that would prevent students from being forced to attend a public school other than the one closest to their home, provided that school is within their residential school district and offers the specific curriculum the student is pursuing. A Concurrent Resolution is a legislative measure that requires approval from both houses of the legislature (in this case, the General Assembly and the Senate) but does not require the governor's signature; it is often used to express legislative sentiment or to propose constitutional amendments. If approved by both legislative bodies, this proposed amendment would then be put to a public vote in the next general election, following specific notification procedures.
