Clarifies housing rights under New Jersey Constitution and prohibits laws requiring municipalities to provide housing for all income levels.

This bill proposes amendments to the New Jersey Constitution to clarify that there is no personal right to housing for all income levels in all municipalities. It also prohibits the Legislature from enacting laws that require municipalities to provide housing for all income levels through zoning and land use regulation. The intent is to remove affordable housing obligations placed on municipalities due to the Mount Laurel cases. If approved by voters, these amendments will be submitted to the public at the next general election.
