Bill Summary

Encourages wearing blue to honor law enforcement officers on Peace Officers Memorial Day.

AI Summary

This bill amends existing law to add a new provision encouraging the wearing of blue on Peace Officers Memorial Day, which is May 15th each year in New Jersey, as a way for citizens and local government units to show their appreciation for law enforcement officers who protect and safeguard lives and property, acknowledging the risks they face. This addition complements existing encouragements for observing the day by recognizing officers, displaying the U.S. flag at half-staff for those killed or disabled in the line of duty, and organizing ceremonies and activities to express gratitude.
