Whereas, New Jersey's young people who set their goals high, who persevere in the pursuit of those goals, and who reach their desired milestones and accomplish their objectives stand as an example and an inspiration to their fellow citizens of all ages.
Whereas, it is both proper and fitting for this Legislature to pause in its deliberations to praise the history of Black people, whose most glorious chapters are still being written as generations of African-Americans contribute in full measure in the fulfillment of the American promise; now, therefore, be it further resolved by the Senate and General Assembly of the State of New Jersey that this Legislature hereby Honors Malachi Samedy.
