Visibility Bridge action: GOV PHIL SIGN IMMIGRANT BILLS
No more delays. No more excuses.
@govmurphy.bsky.social SIGN THE BILLS

Voters are demanding bold leadership on issues like economic justice, immigrant justice, climate action, and affordable housing. If Sherrill wants to build a winning coalition, she must engage with and listen to the communities that powered these progressive campaigns.
Mikie Sherrill may have won the primary election but one thing is clear: if she hopes to win in November, she must take the progressive base seriously. The results show that the progressive vote was split—Ras Baraka and Steven Fulop each drew significant support, sending a strong message.
Mass detention is a cruel, inhumane/broken system that devastates our communities. These cages are the backbone of Trump’s mass deportation agenda, and we cannot be complicit and stay silent. In 2021, New Jersey drew a hard line: detention centers are not welcome here. #shutthemdown
Right now NJ is failing to do everything it can to protect its residents from Trump’s mass deportation campaign. We need the Immigrant Trust Act now—no more delays!
The Trump administration is planning to turn Fort Dix into a massive detention facility in NJ. Our state leaders need to stop stalling and take action. Where is their courage and leadership? www.nj.com/politics/202...

“It’s a statement … about the type of leadership that [Reps. Sherrill and Gottheimer] might bring to Trenton,” says @erikcm7.bsky.social
Just a reminder:
- One-quarter of all New Jerseyans (or 2.3 million people) are immigrants.
- 41% of all NJ children have at least one immigrant parent.
