New Jersey has the opportunity to be a national leader in a proper fair ballot design. That’s why we are calling on Governor Murphy to veto the ballot design bill S4142/A5116 and stand with voters of NJ! Our Full Statement ⬇️

Tesla Takedown rally in NJ7! Join us on Saturday at noon in Springfield, NJ www.mobilize.us/somaaction/e...

TODAY @4PM: Join us, @booker.senate.gov, @maketheroadnj.bsky.social, @njaij.bsky.social, and Wind of the Spirt NJ for a special roundtable discussion on immigration. Register here: forms.office.com/pages/respon...

URGENT: CALL YOUR ASSEMBLYMEMBER ☎️ ❗️ Once again, the fight for fair ballots has reached the state Assembly. While we won an amendment last week, A5116 continues to threaten NJ’s historic ballot reform in our primary elections. New Jersey deserves a fair ballot!

New Jersey’s corrupt county line is soon to be gone forever. However, today’s passing of S4142 still falls short of a fair ballot voters deserve. Our Full Statement ⬇️

Kean, Smith, Van Drew: Lookin’ at you. This is a death sentence for the disability and I/DD community. #disabilitysky

We’re at the State House in Trenton, joining advocates across NJ to oppose S4142 and fight for a fair ballot!

Today marks a month since Inauguration Day. For 31 days, we have fought to defend our communities and ensure they have access to information and resources. This work is incomplete without the #ImmigrantTrustAct. It's time: the NJ legislature must step up and join our fight💥

While we're all scrambling to save democracy on the national front, NJ Dems are once again trying to put their thumbs on fair ballots here at home! Contact your state senator TODAY. Urge them to oppose S4142 and support simple, clear ballots that do not favor some candidates over others.

Attention New Jersey!! Call your senator and bring back integrity to the Garden State. @jojofromjerz.bsky.social

This ballot design bill also changes the way committee people will be elected. Rather than being chosen by you, the people, they will be elected by members of the county committee. Talk about trying to stack the deck!

So proud to unite with so many in Bernardsville today. We gathered, then walked to Tom Keans office to tell him to fight for our Medicare, Social Security, and Healthcare! NJ07 @njwfp.bsky.social @njindivisible.bsky.social @onenj7.bsky.social @actiontogethernj.bsky.social #DontMuskWithMyMedicare

Folks! We deserve fair ballots! Call your state senators!! Find their number here: www.nj11thforchange.org/contact_reps

"..rolling protests everywhere may turn out to be more sustainable than the mass one-day turnouts (...)." @newrepublic.com Like this protest at rep. Kean's office in Bernardsville NJ, today. The protest focust on spending cuts in healthcare. @njindivisible.bsky.social @njwfp.bsky.social

Tom Kean Jr: It’s either Musk or us. Earlier today 100+ gathered at Kean's office to demand he stand up for healthcare and stop Elon Musk and his minions from slashing funds to Medicare and other programs we rely on, all to cut taxes for himself and his billionaire friends.

Once again, our ballots are under attack in New Jersey, and we need YOU to help us save the democratic integrity of the Garden State. S4142 threatens historic ballot reform in our primary elections. Voters deserve a fair ballot!

Great day out with @njwfp.bsky.social in District 7 to tell Congressman Tom Kean Jr., HANDS OFF Medcaid, SNAP and the ACA! Call 1-866-426-2631 today and tell your Congressional Representatives not to gut these vital programs so billionaires can have another tax break.

This ìs what democracy looks like! #kean #bernardsvillenj @njwfp.bsky.social

The establishment is running scared after the end of the county line, and it shows. There are new signature requirements for getting on the ballot in NJ. Here’s everything you need to know. ⬇️

Grassroots candidates all across NJ are speaking out about Trenton's ballot access power grab: “All these different stars have sort of aligned where they’ve lost the county-line ballot, and this is a small way to move the goalposts again.” newjerseymonitor.com/2025/02/06/t...

Well, this is embarrassing…

Courts across the country are temporarily blocking Donald Trump's order to block trillions of dollars of vital grants, aid, and loans to our communities. Tell Congress: Don't allow Trump to defund our communities.

The man behind Project 2025 and Trump’s Medicaid, school lunch, and veteran service freeze is up for an important government role. There are going to be key moments where we ask the people to step in. This is one. Call/email your senator NOW: wfpus.org/NoOnVought

Still time to join! Happening TODAY! 👇

“We need a governor who will stand up to President Donald Trump, by investing in our schools, expanding access to New Jersey Transit and safeguarding access to health care for women and trans New Jerseyans.” - Sunni Vargas, NJWFP Political Director whyy.org/articles/new...

“When you have a senator taking gold bars as bribes and an indicted party boss throwing a disco party with former governors between his criminal court hearings, you know that the system is broken.” - @heytonimichelle.bsky.social, NJWFP State Director jerseyvindicator.org/2025/01/30/n...

What does the WFP endorsement mean? We endorse candidates who are fiercely determined to win transformative change that will improve people’s lives and build the multiracial democracy that lives up to America’s promise. If that’s you, fill out our questionnaire starting Feb 3rd!

Silence on MAGA's attacks harms our communities. NJ needs a governor who will defend the progressive gains we've made and stand up to protect ALL New Jerseyans. We need someone to continue driving us forward, not backward. whyy.org/articles/new...

Another year, another WFP endorsement! Our candidate questionnaire will go live on Monday, Feb 3rd. If you are a candidate who aims to improve the economic security and well-being of working families in New Jersey, apply for our endorsement! The deadline to submit is Feb 24th.

Last night, President Trump signed an EO threatening to override families with transgender youth& shut down access to gender-affirming care for trans people under the age of 19 NATIONWIDE. This order will not take immediate effect, and the ACLU will not let this policy stand.

New Jersey corruption was on full display today in Camden. George Norcross needs to be investigated, not celebrated with a disco party hosted by Kelly Ripa.

REAL New Jerseyians are in danger because of your allegiance to the private prison industry Rep. Josh G.
