This bill proposes to honor Governor Richard J. Codey by designating the State House Complex Welcome Center as the "Governor Richard J. Codey Welcome Center." The bill highlights Governor Codey's extensive public service, including his tenure as New Jersey's longest-serving legislator, his roles in the General Assembly and Senate, and his time as Acting Governor and the 53rd Governor of New Jersey. It emphasizes his contributions to public health, community safety, and youth welfare, as well as his active involvement in his community after retirement.

The State Capitol Joint Management Commission is tasked with implementing this designation and will erect appropriate signage to reflect the new name. Additionally, the commission is authorized to accept public and private donations to cover the costs associated with the signage. The bill is set to take effect immediately upon passage.
