It's quite ironic. Senator Menendez, a former NJ state assembly member, class of 1992 before moving to Congress, begins his trial today while that very legislature is voting to dilute OPRA and diminish transparency. Our state suffers from entrenched corrupt career politicians.

In an election year where all dems should be rallying together to fight for our democracy against MAGA extremists, the NJ establishment is fighting to keep NJ an undemocratic state. That’s where they are putting their energy. We will never forget. #AbolishTheLine

The New Jersey county line system is inherently unjust and biased. It is a tiered system that is unfairly advantageous to the candidate preferred by the party bosses. New Jersey is the only state in the union that follows this undemocratic primary process.

The recent events in Trenton, with an active shooter and hostage situation, highlight the pressing necessity for extensive federal gun reform. Living in a blue state doesn't guarantee your safety from such violence given the ease with which firearms can cross state borders.
