PREPAREDNESS COMMITTEE
STATEMENT TO
ASSEMBLY CONCURRENT RESOLUTION No. 81
STATE OF NEW JERSEY
DATED: MARCH 10, 2022
The Assembly Homeland Security and State Preparedness
Committee reports favorably Assembly Concurrent Resolution No. 81.
As reported by the committee, Assembly Concurrent Resolution
No. 81 directs the State Commission on Investigation to examine
human trafficking activity at the places of business of persons who
employ massage and bodywork therapists.
This concurrent resolution calls for the State Commission on
Investigation to issue a report summarizing its investigation no later
than two years after the resolution takes effect. The report may be
delayed at the request of the Attorney General for up to an additional
120 days pursuant to section 7 of P.L.1996, c.44 (C.52:9M-8.1), due to
information or evidence contained in the report showing a reasonable
possibility of human trafficking or other criminal wrongdoing. The
report would also include recommendations for consideration by the
Governor and Legislature for further addressing human trafficking
activity within these places of business.
