Urges Congress to pass the "Sikh American Anti-Discrimination Act of 2026" to combat discrimination against Sikhs.

New Jersey ACR153 urges Congress to pass the "Sikh American Anti-Discrimination Act of 2026." This act would create a task force within the Department of Justice to examine and combat anti-Sikh hate and discrimination. The resolution highlights the Sikh community's integral role in New Jersey's cultural diversity and the disproportionate targeting of Sikhs in the U.S., as reported by the FBI in 2024. The act aims to address persistent discrimination, harassment, and violence against Sikhs.
