I’ve worked alongside @seiu.org New Jersey State Council members for years in the fights for a $15 minimum wage, paid sick days, and basic dignity on the job.
These are the workers who keep our state running. I’m so proud to have their support.

Bloomfield's mayor is sharing vague statements about accountability, I just want us to get 1000 signatures on this petition: c.org/XmwXJpqVPj
This Thanksgiving, the NJ Senate is killing a gov’t watchdog that stops wasteful spending, giving politically powerful individuals broad powers to intimidate law enforcement fighting corruption & even letting them tap phones. Outrageous.
I’ll be testifying against it on Mon.
US Representative Ro Khanna endorses Analilia Mejia for Congress in NJ-11
Proud to have the support of @rokhanna.bsky.social!
Ro has been a powerful, principled voice in Congress for working people, from championing the PRO Act to releasing the Epstein files. Together we'll stand up to Trump and unrig our economy.

Plaintiff’s attorney, “There is unfortunately a racist culture in some parts of the Bloomfield Fire Dept which is known about by the township and allowed to persist by the township for many years.”

1/6At the Build and Defend NJ 2025 Gubernatorial Candidate Forum, when asked about defending immigrant communities from Trump's administration, @mikiesherrill.bsky.social expressed opposition to the reopening of Delaney Hall for privately housing immigrant detainees.
“who will stand up for immigrants here in New Jersey and who will stay silent” READ @satenikm.bsky.social call to action! #NJ reach out to your municipal bodies to pass resolutions to advocate for Bill A4987 "New Jersey Immigrant Trust Act."
Elect good people locally… that is all!
Musk's SpaceX’s POL PAC fundraising committee gives thousands to candidates from both parties.
Last November it gave Rep Gottheimer $2,500,
and over the last 5 years, it gave Rep Sherrill— & political action committees supporting her—about $31,500.

Over a red-tinted photo of the statehouse in Trenton: "New Jersey will not waver in our commitment to enforcing our state’s civil rights laws and combating discrimination and bias-based harassment based on sexual orientation, gender identity, and gender expression. State on Protecting LGBTQIA+ New Jerseyans from Discrimination (January 2025), NJ Division on Civil Rights."
Over an orange-tinted photo of Convention Hall in Asbury Park: "Every New Jerseyan has the right to live free from discrimination and harassment. Discrimination against the LGBTQIA+ community is an affront to our values, and it violates our state’s civil rights laws, plain and simple."
Over a yellow-tinted photo of Camden: "The New Jersey Law Against Discrimination (LAD), our state’s landmark civil rights law, remains in full force regardless of the federal government’s actions."
Over a green-tinted photo of the Newark skyline: "The LAD expressly prohibits New Jersey employers, housing providers, and places of public accommodation—that is, places open to the public—from discriminating based on sexual orientation, gender identity, gender expression, and other protected characteristics."
The #NJ Division of #CivilRights just made it unequivocally clear: anti-LGBTQ+ discrimination is an affront to the Garden State's values and our Law Against Discrimination is in full force — no matter what the federal government has to say.

Yesterday’s ICE action in Newark only further highlights the danger of Donald Trump’s immigration strategy. Warrantless searches that round up citizens as collateral damage should be condemned by both Republicans and Democrats.

Most of us in 2025 have been navigating between feeling optimistic 🥰 and then concerned 😦, Billie Jean has the 2025 vibes down! #Maltese
This is an all hands on deck situation, My Friends-Neighbors-Students, etc need a United front of support and protection. Our elected officials need to actually show up to support and protect our NJ families and friends.
We are going to change NJ’s political system for good and create accountability to people instead of party bosses. We are going to help people run for office that have been boxed out before. newjerseyglobe.com/governor/bor...
I hope we are paying attention
Are they trying to convince us, NJ voters, that they are Republican lite? How can we expect them push back at Trump's agenda if one of them becomes the governor? I am very upset: as an immigrant, as a criminologist, and as a democrat.
This morning, I was excited to read @stevenfulop.bsky.social 's white paper on Environmental Policy, Sustainability & Energy. He is the only Governor candidate that engages in substantive policy development.
Talk about a packed room in Ridgewood last night for our meet and greet as part of our campaign for Governor. We are running a different type of campaign and it is growing. Join us at stevenfulop.com
We are crushing the opposition on the policy front bc we are the only one’s outlining what we will do for NJ beyond platitudes. Releasing today our sustainability platform and explaining why- There is lots in there but It includes:
I posted this on my feed, but look at how she talks to children, she’s on their level and has eye contact. Children are worthy of having a conversation with…their feelings count, this is what a leader does 🥰
Not a big TJ fan but I do love that as president, Jefferson refused to endorse Thanksgiving proclamations bc he believed in the separation of Church and state.
I started reading the book on on my Libby app and when it started I was thinking maybe I downloaded a different book with the same name! 😳Not for middle school kids, but who am I to judge I read “it” when I was very young! 🤪
