@AndyKimNJ
, you have inspired me and so many others by standing up for what is right, even against the most powerful forces in NJ politics.
We are proud to join you in standing up for a fairer and cleaner way of doing politics.
I am heartened by the courage of our young leaders who stood up.

New folks, I would still appreciate the like, retweet, and follow, but please note that I have unfortunately had to tap out. Y'all's energy is so inspiring and we are gonna win this thing in November!
Holy shit. Well, I said I'd do it. As of this tweet, 330 retweets, 850 likes, and 356 new followers. That's $606.
On Sunday, I was very inspired and gave $250 as well...
So I am very sorry but I am cutting it here. Thank you for helping me spend over 1 week of income!

The Andy Kim campaign consists of the most thoughtful and compassionate people I have met in politics.
When I was scared and in possession of a recording of myself being threatened, unsure of the ramifications, I went to them for advice.
Before
@NJCollegeDems
made our endorsement of
@AndyKimNJ
, I was threatened.
NJ deserves better. We need Andy Kim’s integrity and devotion to public service, especially after the way Menendez tarnished the office. Gen Z will not be silent.
First, it was my idea to make the recording. It was my idea to take it to the press. The Kim campaign was not involved in making the recording.
Second, nobody was "framed."
Third, Tammy's apology to me threw that young woman under the bus.
No - it is coming from the campaign that the Kim campaign knowingly framed by taping a young woman with no role on the campaign and then sending it to the New York Times to smear Tammy
I'm so excited for Senator
@AndyKimNJ
!
But there's so much more to do. Let this be the first of many examples of pro-democracy candidates beating the machine.
There should be no room for politicians who are opposed to free and fair elections within the Democratic Party.
I am truly overwhelmed by the reaction here -- the energy behind the
@KamalaHarris
campaign is incredible.
America will elect our first woman president and turn the page to not just leave bigotry and division in the past, but to build a future where everyone prospers. (1/2)

Control of the House runs through NJ-07, and young folks know what's at stake: our freedoms, our democracy, our environment, and so much more.
@suealtman
will fight for our values and our futures -- and if that's not reason enough to join next time, do it for the free ice cream!
We co-hosted our first of four phone banks for

@NJYoungDems
and
@njhsdems
on Thursday and made over 1400 calls!!!
Thank you Congressman
@Malinowski
for joining us to talk about the district and the importance of this race!
Just voted early! Proud to have voted for
@AndyKimNJ
,
@RepBonnie
, and... myself! I am running for the Mercer County Democratic Committee to make sure the party champions our progressive values.
And I'm excited to send two fantastic Democrats to Congress!
Make sure to vote!!!
They told me to only do what I was comfortable with. They never pressured me to go to the NYT or to talk to any other reporters.
Instead, they told me that they would have my back if there was retribution, even if I stayed quiet.
I'm proud to be the new President of

We've been up to some good trouble, and we'll keep at it :).

A year and a half ago,
@AndyKimNJ
spoke to the Princeton College Dems. He joined us virtually from a balcony of the Capitol because the House was in session and joked that we wouldn’t be the reason he missed his first vote. He stepped aside a few times to keep that promise! (1/2)
As Democrats, we should be fighting for transparency and accountability in government.
Thank you
@AndrewZwicker
for voting against legislation that would gut OPRA and for upholding those values.
I wish I could have kept going with the donations, but I sadly had to tap out last night.
But money isn't all that counts, and I am so excited for all of the volunteering and organizing that I will be a part of between now and November. (2/2)

People on twitter should be nicer to Tammy Murphy. I've seen comments that go too far.
But the Kim campaign does not engage in bullying. Only Tammy's campaign does that, threatening college students and committee members.
Ok…I think I get it now. Thanks to my campaign team for explaining the incredible excitement behind Kamala and the energy that will propel our victories in November!
Thank you, Congresswoman!
This was an amazing office to work in and I can't recommend it enough.
@MadisonMVerdone
, my predecessor, and I met as interns in this office, where we became friends and worked to restart CDNJ.
Maybe the next President will be a former intern too :).
Thank you
@TammyMurphyNJ
for a campaign that centered tackling the climate crisis, protecting reproductive freedom, and pushing for gun control.
Now is the time for Democrats to work together. Let's keep fighting to get that stuff done.
According to Gov Track, in the 116th Congress he missed 0% of votes. In the 117th Congress he missed 0.1% of votes. Andy Kim shows up for NJ in the House and will show up for us in the Senate. (2/2)
Thank you so much

for joining us! It was inspiring to hear from such a thoughtful and passionate candidate and organizer.
This year we're gonna keep

Fun evening with the Princeton University Democrats this week!!
Thoughtful questions on housing, education, jersey politics, environ & more.
Really enjoyed the dialogue… and loved EVEN MORE that this crew is canvassing this weekend for

That's right! Gen Z is here and we're ready for a new type of politics with leaders like

that are devoted to public service and will fight for a better future.
Congressman Andy Kim Receives Major ‘Gen Z’ Endorsements from both The College Democrats of America and The College Democrats of New Jersey in His Race for U.S. Senate - Insider NJ -
I'm so proud of our decision to endorse
@AndyKimNJ
! We need a battle tested candidate who has won multiple times in a Trump district to lead our ticket to victory in competitive house races and to finish the job.
We proudly stand with
@CollegeDems
and endorse Representative
@AndyKimNJ
for US Senate! Rep. Kim’s record speaks for itself, and we can count on him to restore integrity to the Senate. From the climate crisis to college affordability to abortion rights, Andy Kim has our back.
Congrats Sue! I’m so excited to
#FlipNJ7
and elect someone who will protect our democracy, stand up to anti-LGBTQ+ extremists, and fight against corruption.
It’s the honor to carry the torch forward for CD-7. I am humbled and inspired by the optimism and experience already present in this district. We will do this together!!
Now let’s win this thing!!
#FlipNJ7
First: thank you Congressman.
Second: this is why this primary was so important! We elected someone who cares deeply about our democracy and will keep fighting for it.
Yesterday, hundreds of thousands in NJ voted against corruption in our politics, sending a clear signal they are fed up with back room deals and favors for the few. In order to have accountability and ultimately trust, we must have transparency. This law moves us backwards and as
Happy Pride! 🏳️🌈 🏳️⚧️
Transphobic and anti-LGBTQ+ policies are at the heart of the GOP agenda. They’ve been doing it at the state level and trying at the federal level.
This pride, let’s commit to defeat politicians that ban health care, bully children, and erase our community.
Happy Pride Month! 🏳️🌈
Pride is political. And right now, we must stand up for the LGBTQ+ and especially trans community, because the GOP is on the attack. Cruel and ignorant policies to take away health care and make children's lives harder must be beaten at the ballot box.
I signed this letter because abolishing the line is about having free and fair elections.
Voters and volunteers are watching, and we'll remember whether you stood up for democracy or betrayed it
@MercerClerk
. It's not too late to do the right thing -- withdraw from the appeal!
Princeton Mayor, current and past council members, and other elected officials ask
@MercerClerk
to stop wasting taxpayer $$ trying to save the unconstitutional county line primary ballot.
I also want to give a huge shoutout to
@MadisonMVerdone
, the amazing President who helped us get off the ground and led us through a tumultuous time with enthusiasm and conviction.
I am so grateful for all of your wisdom, leadership, and friendship <3.

Without lines, Conaway and Murphy need voters in the NJ-03 primary.
Other legislators should expect that the unconstitutional county lines won't be used next year either, which means they'll need voters too.
If you vote for this, especially in a rushed process, you own it.
Republicans are whining about Trans Day of Visibility while Democrats are celebrating it.
Republicans will and do take trans rights away while
@JoeBiden
says that trans rights are the civil rights issue of our time and will expand trans rights.
The choice couldn’t be clearer.
Trans rights are human rights.
On Transgender Day of Visibility, we honor the courage and resilience of transgender and nonbinary Americans and celebrate their many contributions to our country.
General Bragg used enslaved African-American labor on his plantation and engaged in armed insurrection to maintain slavery.
Bragg is a traitor to our Constitution, to our country, and to our founding ideals. We should not honor traitors.
The choice in November is clear, and I believe young folks will stand with the President who stands with us and our values, just as we did in 2020.
There are so many reasons to be enthusiastic about this campaign -- take a look at what we think are the most important ones!
President
@JoeBiden
has our backs. Donald Trump only looks out for himself.
On the issues that matter, the choice is clear.
Check out our statement exploring ten important policy areas and showing why we must re-elect President Biden! (1/7)
It is the honor of a lifetime to join
@kamalaharris
in this campaign.
I’m all in.
Vice President Harris is showing us the politics of what’s possible. It reminds me a bit of the first day of school.
So, let’s get this done, folks! Join us.
I’m proud to have supported this statement to call for a ceasefire and hostage release and urge President Biden to go further with conditions on military aid and sanctions on violent settlers.
At CDNJ, we are pro-peace, anti-bigotry, and proud to stand up for our beliefs!
On Sunday, we hosted
@suealtman
for a virtual Q&A with New Jersey college students, and we are proud to announce our endorsement of her campaign!

I’ve been on the frontlines knocking doors in Pennsylvania nearly every weekend. As they say, 42 more days and a wake up until Election Day!
@AndyKimNJ
did a great job at the PCDO endorsement meeting tonight. He demonstrated that he has the experience, thoughtfulness, and dedication to represent New Jersey in the Senate.
You have been an amazing President.
And this choice shows that you truly put the country before yourself.
Thank you.
Can't wait to elect
@VP
in November!!!
This convention was a blast!
We've got a great team and are ready to organize to defend and improve our democracy, protect and expand our freedoms, and build an economy that works for everyone.
2024 Annual Convention Recap!!!
First up, we elected a new executive board! We're excited to get to work to elect good Democrats up and down the ballot! (1/7)
This IS an open process.
VP Harris has fully earned the support of Democrats like me and the delegates and politicians who are endorsing her on our behalf.
We want her to be our nominee, and that's why she'll be our nominee.
The Democratic party is not just deciding who its candidate will be going forward. It’s deciding who and what it is. What it stands for.
Anointing Joe Biden was not a good idea, and anointing Kamala Harris is no better. Back room decisions - all the good kids falling in line
Bashaw starts by comparing himself to the phone that doesn’t work anymore… 🤦♂️
I’ve never used one of those phones and never had a Republican represent me in the senate. Neither of those are changing this November!
Cute moment while canvassing for
@suealtman
with
@pucollegedems
members:
I talked to a 15 year old girl and after telling her that Sue will restore reproductive freedom, she said "hell yeah" and that she'd tell her parents to vote for Sue!
Tmr we will canvass for
@KamalaHarris
!
@lxeagle17
Keep in mind that she was in constant communication with the Murphy campaign that night - she was not stupid, she was misled.
To me what is most interesting about her age is that they would use a college student to try to silence other college students. That is shameful.
Dm the CDNJ account to chip in -- we want to make sure that cost is not a barrier for anyone who wants to come!
And our afternoon speakers will have a better time if the college students are well-fed :).
We're looking for sponsors for our convention in just under two weeks!
We're excited to have advocates and leaders from across the state join us and to conduct our CDNJ elections.
Dm us if you want to donate and we can share more information about the logistics!
I'm so excited to hear from all of these wonderful speakers and to meet students from across the state!
And a huge thanks to all of our generous sponsors who are supporting our work!
Our convention is in 3 days!!! We're so excited to share our agenda and can't wait for everyone to finally meet!
Thank you so much to all of our generous sponsors who have made this event possible. We really appreciate your support!

Yesterday I attended CPAC, and I want to share some thoughts:
The bipartisan movement for criminal justice reform is real and there is real collaboration between conservatives and progressives. It was inspiring to see! (1/5)
Lots we agreed with at the criminal justice reform sessions at CPAC. Lots we disagreed with on the main stage. But overall such a rewarding and special experience for us all.
I'm so excited for this! We have a great set of speakers to learn about NJ politics and what's at stake in November.
And I'm so pumped to hear from
@RepBonnie
, a tremendous fighter for NJ and progressive values in Congress!
We're excited to announce our annual convention will be hosted at TCNJ on Sunday, April 28th!
We also couldn't be happier to announce that
@Bonnie4Congress
, a champion for our values, is our keynote speaker.
If you're a college student in NJ, RSVP here:
Moreover, even though we are in Princeton, our membership comes from across the country, including Virginia. We are proud Americans who wrote letters encouraging people to vote & to vote for politicians that protect their rights & our democracy. State borders don't change that.
Thank you Congresswoman!
You have shown an unwavering commitment to the human rights of everyone, from Ukraine to Gaza.
This is the principled leadership we need on the world stage: upholding international law for our adversaries and our allies too.
I support peace. I support a two-state solution. I support the return of the hostages, and freedom and safety for Israelis and Palestinians. Netanyahu is an obstacle to all of these goals. I could not in good conscience vote to send more offensive weapons to his government.
We did not explain in our emails but the letters are non-partisan through
@votefwd
.
Also, I do agree that a local focus is important, which is why we will be canvassing multiple times in our district and hearing from both our State Senator and County Executive candidates!
Your tweet’s arguments are, in order:
1) deflection
2) deflection
3) deflection
4) deflection
Your efforts to undermine the 2020 election are disqualifying for public office. Period.
If you even end up winning your primary, I look forward to NJ rejecting your extremism--again.
Gee
@MikieSherrill
, aren’t you on the ballot this year running for re-election to Congress?
Seems like you’re already neglecting your constituents with your shadow campaign for Governor.
Anyway, despite the lies, it’s great to hear from you. Just so you know, what people
Holy shit. Well, I said I'd do it. As of this tweet, 330 retweets, 850 likes, and 356 new followers. That's $606.

Presidents are not above the law. That is a core tenet of our legal system.
But Republican judges are helping out their preferred presidential candidate by stalling a trial that could result in a politically damaging conviction.
This delay is an affront to the rule of law.
We are in the 3rd week of June and the Supreme Court continues to give Donald Trump practical immunity for trying to overturn the election by refusing to issue what should be an issue decision in the immunity case.
@SantinoJD11
@NJCollegeDems
I'll answer your question with a quote:
"We strongly condemn Hamas for the horrific, targeted killings of innocent civilians on October 7."
Just wanted to make sure you know this was in the statement in case you didn't read to the end.
Have a nice evening.
Democrats' agenda: investing in infrastructure, combatting the climate crisis, and fighting to eliminate poverty.
Republicans' agenda: bullying children and stripping them of their individuality and freedom.
Easy choice!
@SohaliV
Genuine question I've had because I've seen a lot of discourse about this: isn't using one's position to help elect Kamala Harris and defeat Donald Trump the most moral thing to do wrt this upcoming election?
The candidates are Joe Biden and Donald Trump, but the election is in OUR hands.
Folks should take a deep breath and remember that it's our democracy to save and it's our duty to save it by voting and volunteering.
We don't need dooming, we need organizing.
Have confirmed that Somerset and Mercer county clerks plan to withdraw from the appeal of the preliminary injunction regarding county lines for this year’s June Dem primary.
Morris and Warren Clerks also submit filings withdrawing.
Burlington, Hudson, Essex are also out.
From what I saw, transphobia is the number 1 issue for these young reactionaries. They view queer people with disgust and want to use state violence to eliminate us.
Nex, a trans student was murdered in Oklahoma. A GOP representative called us "filth" in response. (4/5)
There's so much at stake, and young folks are showing up because we know
@suealtman
will fight for our environment, our democracy, and our freedoms.
And having Sue join us at the canvass launch was such a special surprise -- nobody energizes a crowd like Sue!
On the first weekend of the semester,
@pucollegedems
are in Jersey knocking on doors for
@suealtman
and down-ballot Democrats! The path to taking back the house goes through NJ-07!!!
Young voters overwhelmingly do not approve of Donald Trump's and JD Vance's transphobia.
The GOP has waged a war on our trans classmates, friends, and relatives in state governments across the country and with the rhetoric at the top of their ticket.
We will vote accordingly.
More from this Fox News poll on "transgender issues"
Harris +16 among all voters
Harris +19 among Independents
Harris +19 among ages 65+
Harris +21 among women
Harris +25 among moderates
Harris +33 under age 35
Our institutions can’t/won’t stop fascism. Republicans in Congress and the judiciary have failed us and there is no silver bullet Dem to save us.
But we can stop it, because this is still our democracy. The path forward is clear: we save it by voting and organizing.
Social conservatism will not be abandoned any time soon. They said that they "won't give up" on their reactionary agenda, even if it hurts them electorally.
We need to make sure they lose. Over and over. If you have queer friends, family, or community members, we need you. (5/5)
On the other hand, Democrats are holding the line in Congress and advancing LGBTQ+ rights when they get the chance at the state level.
Thank you to leaders like
@GovMurphy
who are proving that Democrats have our backs!
Protecting our LGBTQIA+ community has been, and will remain, a top priority for my Administration.
Here’s what we have proudly accomplished together over the past six years.
Happy

Celebrations of January 6th. Joking about violence towards reporters. Transphobia, islamophobia, and xenophobia. (2/5)
@admcrlsn
This is awesome, thanks for all the hard work! One small thing is that for NJ assembly races, Mitchelle Drulis for the 16th legislative district is not an incumbent. She’s running to fill a seat that was held by another Democrat that isn’t seeking re-election.
New folks, I would still appreciate the like, retweet, and follow, but please note that I have unfortunately had to tap out. Y'all's energy is so inspiring and we are gonna win this thing in November!
@lxeagle17
Do you think the abortion referendum in MT will significantly help Tester?
Maybe it boosts turnout but that seems very minimal. Maybe voters get polarized along pro vs anti referendum, and then support Tester over Sheehy (who probably will oppose it).
But those seem unlikely.

I sat in on a College Republicans of America meeting, and the young activists are even more radical than the adults.
To sum it up succinctly: they hate America. They hate freedom, they hate the progress we've made as a country, and they hate our generation and our values. (3/5)
@AidanDavisNY
True! The filibuster should be abolished.
In fact, VP Harris could even ignore the parliamentarian and rule that abortion rights are primarily budgetary in nature. (A bridge better uncrossed)
It only takes 50 senators and a vice president for whom abortion rights > gridlock.
@SantinoJD11

I believe our statement does answer your question. To be even clearer, the answer is yes.
International law applies to Hamas, just as it does to everyone else.
