New Jersey SCR102 proposes a constitutional amendment to allow public funds for historic preservation of places of worship.

New Jersey SCR102 proposes an amendment to the state constitution to permit the use of public funds for the historic preservation of churches and other places of worship. This follows a New Jersey Supreme Court ruling that found the use of taxpayer funds for such preservation activities violated the state's "Religious Aid Clause." If approved by voters, this amendment would allow counties and municipalities to use public funds for historic preservation of places of worship as part of a broader historic preservation program.
