The bill establishes the New Jersey-Haiti Commission within the Department of State, aimed at enhancing economic and cultural ties between New Jersey and Haiti while addressing the economic challenges faced by the Haitian-American community in the state. The commission will consist of 13 members, including the Secretary of State as chairperson and 12 public members appointed by the Governor from various professional sectors, particularly those serving the Haitian community. The commission is mandated to hold quarterly public hearings, consult with stakeholders, and conduct comprehensive reviews of historical ties, demographic trends, and economic indicators related to the Haitian-American community.

Additionally, the commission will analyze potential partnerships with Haiti, recommend policy initiatives, and may authorize studies and research projects to support its objectives. It is also empowered to solicit grants and funds to further its mission. The commission is required to report its findings and recommendations to the Governor and Legislature within one year of its first meeting and annually thereafter. This initiative reflects New Jersey's commitment to fostering a beneficial relationship with Haiti and supporting its Haitian-American residents.
