The resolution proposes an amendment to the Rules of the General Assembly in New Jersey, mandating that all members be addressed as "State Representative." This change aims to establish a gender-neutral title for members, moving away from the current designations of Assemblyman and Assemblywoman. The resolution highlights that the New Jersey State Constitution of 1947 refers to elected officials as members, not by gender-specific titles, and notes that a majority of states use the term "representative" for members of their lower legislative bodies.

By adopting this resolution, New Jersey would align itself with the majority of states that utilize gender-neutral titles for their legislative members, promoting inclusivity and equality. The resolution is set to take effect immediately upon its passage, reinforcing the commitment to a more equitable representation within the General Assembly.
