The proposed resolution seeks to amend the New Jersey Constitution by limiting the effective period of certain emergency orders, rules, or regulations issued by the Governor to a maximum of 14 days. After this period, such orders would automatically terminate unless the Legislature approves an extension through a concurrent resolution. Additionally, the amendment prohibits the Governor from issuing new orders that are similar in effect to those that have been terminated for the same emergency.

However, the amendment includes specific exceptions where it would not apply. These exceptions include orders that rescind previous orders under the Civil Defense and Disaster Control Act, those issued in compliance with federal law or agreements, orders that pertain solely to the executive branch, those issued under the Governor's military authority, and any orders that are governed by other laws allowing for longer durations. If the amendment is agreed upon, it will be presented to the public for a vote in the next general election, with appropriate notice provided in local newspapers.
