Establishes "Welcome Home Veterans Bonus" program in DMVA to incentivize veterans to reside in New Jersey.

The bill establishes a "Welcome Home Veterans Bonus" program in the Department of Military and Veterans Affairs (DMVA) to incentivize veterans to continue residing in New Jersey after military service. Eligible veterans must have served in specific operations, been honorably discharged, and resided in New Jersey for at least six months before service. The program offers bonuses ranging from $300 to $1,000 based on service circumstances. A special fund, the "Welcome Home Fund," will be created to manage the program's finances.
