New Jersey Constitution of 1947

This work presents the 1947 constitution of New Jersey. It was drafted by a convention of diplomats from each county, assembled from 12 June to 10 September 1947, further strengthening the Office of the Governor and reorganizing and unifying the judicial system under the Supreme Court. Moreover, the document included new rights and protections and required the legislature to provide for "a thorough and efficient system of free public schools."
