Dear NJ Residents,
Last night I had sent out a notice about
Christie trying to implement a TRU-ID program without allowing the public to
provide any input into spending millions of dollars on something that violates
our privacy. Don't be fooled, these actions mean to cut down voter
registration .
Besides with
the budget problems where is Christie getting the money to do
this??? Maybe the answer lies in the backroom deal cut between Christie and
Sweeney. For the past 2 years Sweeney has buckled to Christie on the
Millionaire's Tax..... let's make sure that doesn't happen again.
We need you to take action right now:
Please sign the petition below and contact
your legislators
and tell them to reject any budget deal that doesn’t ask millionaires to pay
their fair share!
You can look up your legislators here: http://www.njleg.state.nj.us/districts/municipalities.asp

Urgent news. Reports are that Gov. Christie and Senate
President Sweeney have struck a backroom deal on a tax plan for this
year’s budget even as new reports show the state's finances are a mess and
the 'New Jersey comeback' the Governor promised was full of hot air.
If it passes, millionaires will once again get a free ride at a
cost to essential services on which working families rely -- and we just
can't let that happen.
Word is that some Senators in the
Statehouse are pushing back but we have very little time to make a
difference.
We need you to take action right now: Sign
this petition to the NJ State Senate urging them to reject any budget deal
that does not ask millionaires to pay their fair
share!
We also have two phone banks taking place:
6:00

With Trenton in disarray we have a good chance at making an impact on the
debate, but we need to move fast.
Thanks for all you
do,
