Bill overview
This bill changes the rank of the Superintendent of the New Jersey State Police to Colonel of State Police and allows for the appointment of a retired State Police officer to this position without requiring them to re-enroll in the State Police Retirement System. It ensures the Superintendent receives the same privileges and powers as other State Police members and mandates they graduate from the State Police Academy and obtain a law enforcement license, if needed. The bill could potentially reduce state pension contributions if the Superintendent doesn't earn additional credits during their tenure.
