The resolution expresses the New Jersey General Assembly's support for federal legislation aimed at establishing a commission to study the potential creation of a National Museum of Irish-American History. It highlights the significant contributions of Irish-Americans throughout U.S. history, noting that approximately 31 million Americans, including over 1 million New Jersey residents, claim Irish ancestry. The resolution emphasizes the cultural and economic impact of Irish immigrants, who have played vital roles in various professions and have enriched American society with their traditions and heritage.

Furthermore, the resolution acknowledges the importance of educating future generations about the history and contributions of Irish-Americans, as well as preserving their cultural traditions. It calls on Congress and the President of the United States to enact legislation that would facilitate the study of the proposed museum, reinforcing New Jersey's recognition of Irish-American Heritage Month in March and the notable figures of Irish descent who have influenced both the state and the nation.
