The Climate Superfund Act holds fossil fuel companies accountable for the damage they've caused to our environment and communities. It's time for New Jersey to demand that polluters pay their fair share for the destruction they have caused: bit.ly/ClimateFundNJ

History will remember those who stood by and did nothing while they snatched people away because of the color of their skin or their accent. While they ripped families apart. You know who you are. Pass the Immigrant Trust Act NOW!

This is reprehensible. Any NJ politician who claims to believe in due process cannot sit on the sidelines as fundamental rights are being shredded. We need leaders with conviction to call this out in the strongest terms. And we need the Immigrant Trust Act now.

Avi Schnall 📍 We’re in District 36 at the office of Asm. Gary Schaer with one simple ask: that the Assemblyman fight for the #ImmigrantTrustAct, and take a stand for New Jersey families.

New Jersey families have the right to access education, healthcare, and other State resources without fear of deportation. It's that simple. How do we get there? The #ImmigrantTrustAct.

Jesse Burns - Executive Director, LWVNJ "New Jersey Senate has introduced legislation that differs drastically from the version that contained significant voter input. Democracy, especially now both demands and deserves better”.

“Even if there’s no ill intent, this leaves the public asking why,” said Jesse Burns, executive director of the League of Women Voters of New Jersey, adding, “This feels a little bit like a bait and switch.”

I still say “We are Lakewood…We are Somebody” when I feel like an underdog (which is all the time). app.com/story/news/loc…

LWVNJ Executive Director Jesse Burns joined a packed room of voters in opposition to S4142. Despite heavy opposition, it is now being fast tracked to the Senate floor for a vote. You worked HARD for fair ballots. Urge your Senator to vote NO on S4142: bit.ly/41fK4zq
