The final days of New Jersey's budget process are here, and the decisions being made now will shape our state's future for years to come.
New Jersey needs a budget that protects and invests in our communities, helps defend against harmful federal cuts, and puts the state on a stronger fiscal footing for the future. That is all possible, but only if lawmakers are willing to ask the wealthiest households and biggest corporations to pay their fair share.
At a time when wealth is more concentrated than ever and the economy continues to grow, raising revenue from New Jersey's wealthiest households and corporations is the common-sense solution. Instead of balancing the budget on the backs of working people and vulnerable communities, New Jersey can choose a path that invests in opportunity, affordability, and economic security for everyone.
Join us as we call on the Governor and Legislature to pass a budget that protects for the many, not the wealthy few.
