Pre-budget speech address rally at NJ Statehouse
Start: Thursday, February 20, 2025•10:00 AM
End: Thursday, February 20, 2025•11:00 AM

New Jersey is facing a $3 billion budget shortfall—and we need bold action to close the gap without slashing essential services, raiding dedicated funds, or raiding the rainy day fund before a real crisis hits. At the same time, federal lawmakers are pushing tax cuts for millionaires, billionaires, and wealthy corporations at the direct expense of Medicaid, SNAP, TANF, and other programs working families rely on.
These looming injustices are outrageous and needs to change.
Join us at the Statehouse to demand:
✅ A fiscally responsible state budget that protects essential programs
✅ Stronger leadership from NJ lawmakers in opposing federal tax giveaways to the wealthy
We need our leaders to step up—loudly and clearly. Let’s make sure they hear us before the Governor's budget address scheduled for Tuesday 2/25.
