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.

1/

#NewJersey #LGBTQ #trans #transgender #queer

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."

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.

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.

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.
