Introduced Text

New Jersey SCR95 proposes a constitutional amendment to allow hiring preferences for veterans who did not serve in time of war.

New Jersey SCR95 proposes an amendment to the state's Constitution to authorize the Legislature to extend civil service hiring preferences to veterans who did not serve in time of war. Currently, only veterans who served in time of war receive such preferences. The amendment, if approved, would allow the Legislature to pass laws granting these preferences to all veterans, regardless of whether they served in a war. The proposed change would be put to a vote at the next general election.
