Increases paid military leave for certain public employees in U.S. Reserves to 90 days per year.

Increases the number of paid leave days for public employees who are members of the U.S. military Reserves, including the National Guard of other states, to 90 days per year. This change aligns the benefit with that given to members of the National Guard or other components of the organized militia of New Jersey. Any leave beyond 90 days will be provided without pay. The bill also ensures that any costs incurred by local employers due to this change will be reimbursed by the state.
