Analilia Mejia’s historic victory is a huge win for working people & sends a clear signal that it’s a new day in New Jersey politics, and that our country is ready for bold, working-class leadership. We’re one step closer to sending an organizer and a WFP champion to Congress!

We're proud to endorse Ron Bautista for Hudson County Commissioner! Ron is no stranger to fighting for his neighbors. From joining tenants in Hoboken to fight unfair rent hikes to winning safer streets, Ron knows what it takes to improve the lives of working families in HC!

We must win the special election for New Jersey’s 11th Congressional District, and we’re proud to endorse @AnaliliaForNJ to do just that. She is a fearless advocate for working families who has spent her career taking on powerful interests and delivering real results.

With a weakened federal Voting Rights Act that remains under constant threat, and voter suppression rampant across the country, it’s more essential than ever that we protect our right to vote. NJ must codify into state law our own voter protections and expand voter access now!

Lastly, we've seen how an opaque budget process hurts working people: last year our state cut programs that help working people afford child care. We'll continue to call for a budget process that gives regular people a seat at the table.

As the budget process unfolds, we'll be looking for more details into proposed cuts to ensure vital programs remain, and we'll fight to expand programs that address poverty and deliver relief that working people are waiting for.

Today, @GovSherrillNJ delivered her first budget address. Here's why we're optimistic about the proposal so far. For years, our state has relied on gimmicks to plug holes while corporate tax breaks exploded. Gov. Sherrill is right when she says it's not what people deserve. 1/

Today, I’m introducing the most fiscally responsible budget that New Jersey has seen in years.

It fully funds our pension system.

It does not raise taxes on individual residents.

And it includes $2.6 billion in budget solutions – including over $700 million in new revenue from closing corporate tax loopholes.

When big businesses don't pay fair wages or offer their employees healthcare, those costs get passed onto everyone else. I'm happy to see that @GovSherrillNJ's budget calls on these companies to pay into NJ FamilyCare. It's time for big businesses to pay their fair share.
Governor Mikie Sherrill@GovSherrillNJ

My budget is an affordability budget – rooted in fairness for hardworking families.

It answers first to people around their kitchen tables, not in the boardroom or the backroom.

It lays the groundwork to expand opportunity, and tackle even harder problems in the years ahead.

Big news: The Turnpike Trap is canceled!!! @GovSherrillNJ just killed the plan to widen the Turnpike through Hudson County. After six years of community opposition, this fight is over. Thank you to every neighbor, advocate, and organization that showed up to public hearings, organized their blocks, and refused to let this happen. This is proof that advocacy works — this victory belongs to you.
