From @northjersey | Op-Ed: NJ’s officials must use mansion tax to restore affordable housing funds now by HCDNNJ President & CEO @staciberger & Gateway CAP Exec Director Edward Bethea northjersey.com/story/opinion/…
Theresa is a single mom of two kids with severe autism. Medicaid is how they survive. Her own Representative, Thomas Kean Jr., voted to cut it by $1 TRILLION. This is not fiscal responsibility. It’s cruelty, plain and simple. gothamist.com/news/trump-is-…
We are facing the most brazen rollback of civil rights in generations. On July 17th, five years since the passing of Congressman John Lewis, communities are mobilizing to ensure #GoodTroubleLivesOn and carry Lewis’ legacy forward. Find an event near you! mobilize.us/?country=US&da…
There is a time delay before the worst impacts hit New Jersey, but we're not going to forget what happened. Framed as a crackdown on “waste, fraud, and abuse,” the new law instead cuts key benefits, increases red tape, and raises costs for many families. newjerseyglobe.com/congress/now-t…
Cutting SNAP is like stealing candy from a baby (metaphorically!). But in all seriousness, for the FIRST TIME in the program's history, these cuts will shift cost to the states, and some kids are going to lose access to a critical life improving benefit. njspotlightnews.org/2025/07/snap-f…
We knew the budget outlook was bad — but it’s worse than we thought. This new report from @NJPolicy shows how NJ’s FY26 budget deepens inequality, shortchanges public needs, and sets us up for a fiscal cliff. This isn’t governing. It’s deferring disaster.
New Jersey’s FY 2026 budget could and should have been a moment of courage. Instead, the budget process cut back revenue increases and dips deeper into the state’s cash reserves, while failing to protect residents from federal cuts. Read NJPP’s breakdown: njpp.org/publications/r…
This is worth repeating. Again and again and again. The needs of the people of New Jersey are not being met. When facing an affordable housing crisis, taking money away from the affordable housing fund to plug a budget hole lawmakers KNEW was coming, is not a solution.
From @NJMonitor | Advocates say New Jersey budget falls short of affordable housing needs "Staci Berger, the network’s president and CEO, said the diversion contradicts years of coordinated planning with developers and investment in housing projects." newjerseymonitor.com/2025/07/03/adv…
Unless you're in the top 1%, the “Big, Beautiful Bill” probably hurts more than it helps. It adds trillions to the debt by cutting essential programs. Just to hand more wealth to those who need it the least?!? That’s bad fiscal policy and immoral. whyy.org/articles/big-b…
I've said it before and I'll say it again: the Republicans' Big Disastrous Bill will not discriminate against party. Democrats, Republicans, and Independents will all feel the impact. When our costs go up and it becomes harder to get lifesaving medical care, remember that they…
#STATEMENT Following the news that the House has passed the Reconciliation Bill and it now heads to President Trump’s desk, Nedia Morsy of @MaketheRoadNJ , issued this statement on behalf of the organization’s thousands of members.
Tomorrow is the day that many Americans celebrate independence, freedom, and justice. Yet today, ICE just became the most costly and highest funded federal enforcement agency in our nation’s history.
Republicans just stole from all of us to give permanent tax breaks to billionaires. Tom Kean Jr, Chris Smith, and Jeff Van Drew voted for this. They said they'd protect healthcare, but they lied to their constituents in blind loyalty to Trump. We won't forget this.
the largest transfer of wealth from everyday people to the ultra-rich in history. 12 million+ people will lose their health care. 13 times more funding to carry out abductions of our neighbors and family members. gives the ultra rich tax breaks.
The "big beautiful bill" has passed and this will have devastating consequences for millions of Americans and our healthcare system. Our full statement here: ow.ly/1SEz50WkEEG
The House's cruel budget eliminates vital programs for people around the country and blows an even bigger hole in the state’s budget that lawmakers failed to adequately prepare for. “This is not about money — it’s about consequences," said @nicolenjpp. njpp.org/media/statemen…
The Price of This Bill? Our Health and Our Future. After hours of backroom negotiations, Congress narrowly passed Trump’s so-called “One Big Beautiful Bill” by a final vote of 218–214. Our Response:
Four hours and still going, Minority Leader @RepJeffries is buying us time to make one more round of calls. Call your Representative right now: (877) 853-4144. This our last chance to tell them to kill the bill!
Forty years of trickle-down economics is why the economy feels terrible and we can't afford anything. The Republican budget that raises our prices to give billionaires and corporations tax breaks will only make things worse. Tell your rep to vote NO: (877) 853-4144
Social Security and Medicare are earned benefits. Back off.

As families struggle to make ends meet, the last thing New Jerseyans need is to help subsidize film productions. “Families in New Jersey need financial help today, not celebrity cameos,” said @ptrchn1. Read the full statement: njpp.org/media/statemen…
