This bill establishes a framework for the selection, instruction, and oversight of commissioners representing New Jersey at an Article V convention for proposing amendments to the U.S. Constitution. It requires the appointment of an odd number of commissioners through a majority resolution in a joint legislative session. To qualify, candidates must be U.S. citizens for at least five years, New Jersey residents for three of the last five years, at least 25 years old, and registered voters. The bill imposes restrictions on commissioners, including a ban on accepting gifts over $200 during their service and prohibiting votes on amendments that would change certain constitutional guarantees of individual liberty.

Furthermore, the legislation creates an advisory committee to oversee the commissioners, ensuring compliance with the established guidelines. This committee can recall or suspend commissioners who exceed their authority and must inform key legislative leaders of such actions. The bill also introduces criminal penalties, classifying the exceeding of authority by a commissioner as a third-degree crime, and imposing similar penalties on individuals who attempt to bribe, threaten, or intimidate commissioners in their duties. Overall, the bill aims to maintain integrity and adherence to legislative intent in New Jersey's representation at the convention.
