VICTORY! We went to the NJ Supreme Court with New Jersey Office of the Public Defender to address an unprecedented crisis in our criminal courts from the pandemic – people awaiting trials in jail with no end in sight. We asked the Court to let people challenge this limbo. The Court ruled: they can.

"We are here today because our hearts are broken. This weekend is about love but our immigrant communities have not received love from our elected leaders. We have been left behind from any economic relief b/c of our immigration status. We are here fighting for a #Recovery4all"

NJ is the only state to use “the line” to design its ballots. NJ is 45% people of color, but the line, influenced by white party chairs, puts non-line candidates 35 points behind.  Proud to join Sue Altman, Jesse Burns & partners to end to NJ’s line: google.com/amp/s/www.nj.c…
