Good morning #NJ

Proud that national Indivisible endorsed our US Rep. Analilia Mejia as she gets ready for the '26 Dem primary and general elections. Our local Indivisible-affiliated Montclair Sundays group helped make this happen. Credit to co-founders @filmmakerjulie.bsky.social & @lizzylady.bsky.social. LFG!
The daughter of immigrants, @analiliafornj.bsky.social has seen the transformative power a union job can have for working families. As a union organizer, Analilia fought for the right to paid sick leave, a millionaire tax, and raising the minimum wage.
Analilia is running for Congress to give the people of NJ-11 a representative who’s not afraid to hold the corrupt accountable and make government work for working families, not the wealthy and well-connected. She will bring a clear-eyed, people-first perspective to Congress.
OMG Mamdani and Obama sing “Wheels on the Bus” with kids in NYC. 💕💕

To NJ-11: THANK YOU! I’m honored to be elected your next Congresswoman. This victory belongs to all of us! We won by organizing our communities, and that work doesn’t stop now. As your Congresswoman, I’ll fight for you every day, and together, we’re just getting started.

Given Mejia's reputation as an outspoken progressive, it's notable that she'd on track to outperform the moderate Sherrill.
Analilia Mejia just won NJ-11. A Harris +9 suburban district. Against a Republican who called himself a commonsense moderate. AIPAC spent $2 million in the primary trying to kill her path. She won anyway.

Aziz Abu Sarah is a Palestinian whose brother was killed by the Israeli army.
Maoz Inon is an Israeli whose mom & dad were killed by Hamas on October 7th.
Both had every reason to turn toward rage and revenge. (1/6)
What can you do today? Celebrate another powerful win by progressive Democrats, this time in #NJ. #bluetsunami
🗳️TODAY is Election Day!
Now is our chance to make our voices heard and send some good trouble to Speaker Johnson.
Polls are open NOW until 8 PM. Visit vote.nj.gov to find your polling site or a secure ballot drop box if you still have a vote-by-mail ballot.
This Senator doesn’t think the government can do anything well. Don’t run for public office if you think government’s only function is to “mess up your life.”🤦♀️
We need public hearings in Congress. NOW.
There’s no excuse for saying “no” to the American people.
We deserve to know what is happening in this war waged in our name.
MAGA Republicans are driving up everyday costs with extreme policies my opponent supports.
Healthcare and critical programs are being gutted just to fund tax breaks for the ultra-rich.
We can’t afford another vote for Trump in Congress.
VIKTOR ORBÀN CAN STILL WIN IF MIKE PENCE HAS THE COURAGE.
This scene was everything!
🎶I’ll sing to that!!!🎶
Trump, looking like a dork, points at Orban, looking like a subservient dork.
ALL YOU FASCISTS BOUND TO LOSE.
NY times headline on Iran sticking points with "Strait of Hormuz" and "Uranium Stockpiles" circled.
So just to clarify, the two problems over which the Trump Regime FAILED to end a war which they themselves started are:
1) a problem Trump CREATED when he started the war (blocked Strait of Hormuz); and
2) a problem Trump CLAIMED to have already solved last summer (Uranium stockpile).
How about trump?

Analilia For Congress magenta and blue graphic. Early voting April 6 - 14. Election Day THURS April 16. Pretty pic of the candidate with long dark hair and a blue blazer in the middle.
MONTCLAIR SUNDAYS enthusiastically endorses Analilia Mejia in the April Special Election + the June Dem primary in NJ 11. Analilia’s willingness to stand up against ICE before it was cool, and to speak out for trans rights prove she has the integrity that is sorely needed in the halls of power.
We need Democrats to repeatedly, clearly, and with great specificity talk about the accountability to come for the regime.
Keep in mind that Trump's threats communicated in his tweets are themselves war crimes.
🤯
TODAY is the start of early voting in the special election for NJ’s 11th Congressional District. I’m asking you to vote for Analilia Mejia, a proven fighter who is stepping up to protect NJ from Trump’s chaos.

May Day is our chance to hit them where it hurts . . . in the wallet. 5/1-IUSC is joining to show nothing moves without our labor or our dollars. Plan ahead for a full blackout: No work. No school. No shopping. Keep your money in your pocket.
