#NoKings isn’t just a slogan.
Our rights were never given, they were won.
From the ballot box to the picket line, generations of Americans have fought to secure fundamental freedom & dignity for all of us. #BeBraveWithUs

The future of our state is at stake. NJ needs a governor who'll prioritize our safety, our economy, and our health.
Mikie Sherrill has the plan and the courage to get it done. She'll invest in our public schools, our mass transit system, & all of our communities!
