The Assembly Resolution condemns the Governor of New Jersey for her support and encouragement of the riots that occurred outside the Delaney Hall Detention Facility during Memorial Day weekend. The resolution highlights allegations made by attorneys representing detainees regarding poor conditions at the facility, which were denied by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security. The riots involved approximately 125 individuals who obstructed federal ICE agents and engaged in violent confrontations, leading to a curfew being implemented in the area. The Governor's actions, including her public statements blaming ICE for the violence and her visit to the facility after being denied access, are criticized for undermining law enforcement and appearing to support the rioters.

Furthermore, the resolution calls for a bipartisan, independent investigation into the actions of both the Governor and the Mayor of Newark in response to the riots. It asserts that the Governor's response has been performative and focused on gaining national attention rather than addressing the safety and concerns of New Jersey citizens. The resolution emphasizes that the Governor's rhetoric has downplayed the criminal history of some detainees and has ultimately embarrassed the state on a national level. Copies of the resolution will be sent to both the Governor and the Mayor of Newark.
