Here in NJ, we don’t do Jack!

Tomorrow is the last day to register to vote. Let’s seat @mikiesherrill.bsky.social in our Governor’s Mansion and keep as much of Trump out of Jersey as possible #TeamMikie #NJPersists

Vaccines are safe and effective.

Autism isn't caused by vaccines, and autistic people and their families deserve our support.

When you want information, ask your doctor.

It's more important than ever for all of us to speak plainly, truthfully, and directly about public health.

The House Republicans Getting Rich Off Trump’s Big Beautiful Bill

Why is it taboo for Congress to give itself a tiny raise but fine for it to give itself a huge tax cut?

It's time for Speaker Johnson to quit stalling and swear in Democrat Adelita Grijalva to secure the final vote on releasing the Epstein files.

Chris Christie: “Thie is no longer, the Department of Justice, is no longer the premier prosecuting office in America. What it is now is a capo regime who goes out and executes hits when directed by the Don to do so. That’s what it is.”

It’s become crystal clear, Speaker Johnson doesn’t want Congress to come back in session because they don’t want the Epstein files released.

Stop the shutdown - release the files!

The regime does not want you aware of their actions and goals. They are trying to overwhelm us. If it seems like too much, try mocking them. Laughter is healing for those of us resisting, and it drives the regime crazy.

THIS! It makes me so angry. I was at one of her rallies and of course there was a ‘heckler’. At every single one of her rallies, but never, not once was there a ‘protestor’ anywhere where Trump was.

New Jersey!! Your opportunity to vote Nov 4th for your next Governor requires that you are registered to vote by tomorrow.

If you are already registered - CHECK YOUR REGISTRATION.

Promotional graphic encouraging voter registration in New Jersey. At the top, bold black text reads “vote.nj.gov.” Below, two illustrated raised hands—one larger, one smaller—symbolize civic participation. Beneath the hands, two yellow rectangular signs with bold black text say “CHECK YOUR REGISTRATION” and “REGISTER TO VOTE NOW!” The design uses high contrast and simple imagery to promote action and engagement.
