There's NOTHING little about the dedication Eleana has to winning an affordable Jersey City for everyday people. We know we can count on her to fight for her constituents, NOT corporations and billionaires.

Mikie served our country with distinction and honor, and this blatant illegal partisan attack against her is an affront to everyone who has worn the uniform. Our servicemembers and veterans deserve to be protected from political attacks on their privacy and service. 1/2

Mikie Sherrill @mikiesherrill.bsky.social · 19d

This is an illegal and dangerous weaponization of the federal government.

That Jack Ciattarelli and the Trump admin are breaking the law and exposing private records for political gain is a violation of anyone who has ever served.

No veteran's record is safe.

Archives errs in releasing too much of Mikie Sherrill's military record to her opponent in governor's race

The National Archives admitted a technician had erred in releasing Rep. Mikie Sherill's "entire record."

Great night at the Jersey City Parks Coalition gala honoring Marc Wesson & the Friends of Van Vorst Park! I’m incredibly grateful for all who pour so much into caring & advocating for our parks, which are so important for our physical & mental well-being. They deserve the city’s full support.

As a union member, I understand the importance of protecting workers from unfair labor practices and fighting for better working conditions & pay. As a council member, I’ll stand with working people and fight for greater affordability so that more of our essential workers can afford to live here.

Taking time today to remember and honor the lives lost 24 years ago, and those that were changed forever. I’m sending love to all those for whom today is especially difficult. ❤️

Now more than ever, at a time when wealth and power is increasingly being concentrated in the hands of a few, it's important to stand together with workers. I’m extremely proud to be a member of a labor union and to stand in solidarity with other workers fighting for our rights.

Happy Labor Day! If unions didn't protect workers' rights and win better wages & working conditions for everyday people, then billionaires & oligarchs wouldn't be trying so hard to quash them. ✌️

Happy #NationalDogDay from Volta and Faraday! We’re proud to share our mom’s plans to help animals and their humans in Jersey City. 🐾

Happy national dog day! Swipe to see our mom’s plans to help Jersey City animals and their humans.
Eleana Little for Jersey City Ward E

Combat cruelty:
- Prohibit commercial sales of dogs, cats, and rabbits in Jersey City.
- Ban backyard breeding of companion animals in Jersey City.
- Continue Jersey City’s enforcement efforts of animal welfare and animal cruelty laws.

Support people & animals:
- Recognize that abandoned, stray, and feral domestic animals are also a public health concern and an environmental justice concern, in addition to an animal welfare concern.
- Fund pet retention programs to keep pets in their homes and reduce financial owner surrenders.
- Work with homeless shelters and affordable housing developers to create options for pets and their owners who are experiencing housing insecurity.

Compassion for ferals & strays:
- Ensure the animal shelter is fully staffed and funded.
- Allocate funding for and make every effort to recruit an in-house high-volume spay/neuter veterinarian.
- Create a public awareness spay/neuter/vaccinate campaign for pet owners.
- Allocate a budget for reimbursement of certain Trap-Neuter-Release (TNR) costs. Existing TNR work for feral cats in Jersey City is nearly exclusively done by volunteers at great personal expense.

Yesterday’s Ukrainian Jersey City Vyshyvanka 5k Run/Walk! This was the #JerseyCity Ukrainian community’s 5th annual 5k, and my 2nd time running in it. Funds raised go towards ambulances to provide emergency medical care in Ukraine. If you missed the 5k but want to donate, visit givebutter.com/y5ivb6

Yesterday Jersey City Pride turned 25, and the celebration was one to remember!

Joy is a form of resistance. And in a time when LGBTQIA+ rights and even safety are increasingly under attack, it’s more important than ever to stand up, be loud, and fight for the community at the local level. 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️
