The resolution directs the Attorney General of New Jersey to repeal and amend certain provisions of the Attorney General Law Enforcement Directive No. 2018-6, which was established on November 29, 2018. This directive imposed strict limitations on the ability of state, county, and local law enforcement to cooperate with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). The resolution expresses concerns that these restrictions hinder law enforcement's ability to protect citizens, especially in light of the growing undocumented immigrant population in New Jersey, which has become a refuge for illegal immigrants. It highlights the need for better coordination between law enforcement and federal immigration authorities, particularly when individuals who are in the country illegally commit crimes.

The resolution specifically calls for the repeal of the directive while maintaining certain provisions related to T-Visa and U-Visa certifications for victims of human trafficking and other crimes. It proposes modifications to allow law enforcement agencies to inquire about immigration status without legal barriers, thereby enabling them to fulfill their responsibilities to ensure public safety. The sponsors emphasize that the welfare of New Jersey residents should be the top priority, and the resolution aims to facilitate a more effective response to immigration-related issues while still protecting vulnerable populations.
