This showed up in my Facebook memories for today. Just two years... so many changes now that the ballot line is gone. Do county endorsements even matter that much anymore?(And yet, there's Union County, still keeping on with their totally opaque process.)
"Although the vote cancels the immediate bid process, the mayor emphasized that the broader discussion about the future of Rahwayβs water utility is not over.
The decision left many residents wondering what comes next."
Rep Tom Kean Jr #NJ07 says Democrats must "put politics aside" and fund DHS so workers at TSA, FEMA, Coast Guard can get paid.
Of course he means Dems must put *human rights and the Constitution* aside and pass GOP bill - with no restrictions on ICE/CBP violence and prison camps!

Trump promised to protect VA doctors and nurses.
Instead, his administration just eliminated over 14,000 vacant medical positions.
More than 1,500 doctor and 4,900 nursing positions are gone.
And it's creating a crisis for our vets.
Nothing beats spending the morning reading with the kiddos in my daughter's class for Read Across America Week!
This vibrant festival reminds me of the beauty of diversity and unity. Letβs celebrate togetherness, embrace our differences, and spread joy in our communities.
Wishing you all a colorful and joyous Holi filled with happiness and love! πΈπ

every time i look at instagram, i feel like im the only adult who doesn't know how to make money
Tom Kean Jr and other republican politicians are actively raising energy costs for NJ homeowners. Last week he voted to cut up to $14,000 in energy rebates. Thereβs no grey zone here- this man doesnβt fight to lower costs for #nj07 and Iβm ready to replace him in Congress
Last week, the House failed to pass the ROTOR Act by a single vote.
The final tally was 264-133. The bill needed 265 votes under suspension rules.
But @KeanForCongress sided with Republican leadership instead of the families of the 67 people who would still be alive if these standards were law.
March 28: #NoKingsDay across the USA. Stand for democracy vs the wannabe king.
Lets see a big turnout in #NJ07! Events planned so far in Newton, Milford, Phillipsburg, Hackettstown, Bridgewater, North Plainfield, New Providence, Mountainside, Rahway. Find them on the map at nokings.org
Tom Tillis has been DESTROYING Noem for the last five minutes.
Contradicting most everyone else in his Cabinet, Trump just said: "No, I might have forced their hand," when asked if Israel pulled the U.S. into war with Iran.

Agenda for tonight's Rahway Council Meeting.

While some NJ county committees determine endorsements via open conventions and secret ballot...
"Union County Democrats have not yet set a date to award their endorsement; they also conduct endorsements via a vote of the districtβs municipal chairs, rather than through a full county convention."
I'm attending New Jersey Democratic State Committee's event, βRanked Choice Voting at the Local Level with Sen. Andrew Zwicker & Voter Choice
Note: current posted version of the agenda includes several βplaceholdersβ; also no mention of the water privatization issue, which the Mayor promised during his State of the City address earlier in the week. Updated version will likely be posted on Monday afternoon.

and special credit to independent mayoral candidate Hope Moran, whose recent filing to run for mayor on a platform of opposing privatization can't have made the mayor and council feel any better about the privatization plan
I guess this person hasn't been to some exciting town council meetings... People who think these are boring meetings don't look closely at the agenda packet beforehand.
I understand but disagree with this attitudeβlocal government is boring because of a lack of political imagination, not because local government is inherently a do-nothing sinecure
Contrast with #NJ07 Rep Tom Kean Jr, who has no objection to ICE turning a Roxbury warehouse into an immigrant prison.
Kean's "solution" is to propose a bill to have the feds pick up added costs for "host communities."
Roxbury and surrounding towns DO NOT WANT to "host" a detention camp!
Another motivation for Mayor Giacobbe's reversal on privatizing Rahway's water? He'll have a new challenger, Hope Moran, running against him as an independent this year.
Rahway residents... there's still time to voice your opposition to privatizing our water!

A few rabble-rousers outside Rahway's State of the City event last night, handing out info about Mayor Giacobbe's plan to privatize our water. A bit of a shock to have the Mayor announce in his address a complete turn-around on the matter, but we'll warily take the win... for now.
Tonight!
Mayor Raymond A. Giacobbe and the Rahway City Council invite you to attend the 2026 State of the City Address, where we will reflect on past accomplishments and share our vision for Rahwayβs future.

Trump is so far off the mark he's actually pissing off his MAGA Base with EPA now allowing more pesticides into our water, food and bodies.
Tom Kean Jr - you've said nothing about this. Clean water is not partisan. Time to move aside and let me lead. #cd07
Thank you to the New Jersey Monitor for their coverage on this. New Jersey has made itself clear: we will not accept this.
