The resolution designates May of each year as Military Spouse Appreciation Month in New Jersey, acknowledging the vital role that military spouses play in supporting servicemembers and their families. It highlights the sacrifices and challenges faced by these spouses, who often manage the strains of relocation and deployment while providing essential emotional support and stability. The resolution emphasizes that, although they do not wear uniforms, military spouses are integral to the strength and security of the military community and the nation.

To honor their contributions, the resolution requests that the Governor issue an annual proclamation encouraging public officials and citizens to observe Military Spouse Appreciation Month with appropriate activities and programs. This initiative aims to recognize and celebrate the selfless service, strength, and courage of military spouses, affirming their importance in the lives of servicemembers and the broader community.
