THOMPSON FOR CONGRESS

Plainfield, NJ

Our Democracy Can’t Wait for a New Generation.

The average age in Congress is 60. For too long, we have watched our leaders in D.C. function as if we are dealing with a world that no longer exists. Things are not okay.

Our children are being preyed upon by tech corporations, yet our leaders don't know a meme from a mean. Right-wing nationalism and US-funded atrocities threaten future peace. The authoritarian threat and years of Democrat inaction leave us questioning whether we will have a democracy in another two years.

It is time for a change of leadership, not just a change of heart.

The Fighter We Need for NJ-12

Iziah Thompson is not a career politician—he is a policy researcher and organizer who has spent his life struggling with the biggest forces holding back working-class people.

We need a Congress that fights for:

  • Digital Accountability: Protecting our kids from corporate tech giants.
  • Climate & Justice: A bold Green New Deal that creates jobs in Central New Jersey.
  • Real Peace: Ending US complicity in global atrocities and prioritizing human rights.

Rep. Bonnie Watson Coleman has been a pillar of progressive courage, standing on the right side of history—from the Iraq War to advocating for Medicare for All. This election is our chance to take her lead and continue her work in stride.

To win this open seat and carry forward her legacy, we have to prove to the entire state that this campaign has the resources to compete. We don't have the pockets of entrenched politicians and large corporations are already funding our opponents. Every donation counts, big and small, to get our agenda on the ballot and send new leadership to Washington!
