  • Administration of Barack H. Obama, 2009 Remarks at a Campaign Rally
    Administration of Barack H. Obama, 2009 Remarks at a Campaign Rally for Governor Jon S. Corzine in Camden, New Jersey November 1, 2009 The President. Thank you so much. I am—whoo—fired up! I am fired up. Let me first of all acknowledge some extraordinary public servants who are in the house: Rob Andrews, our wonderful Congressman; Steve Rothman, another great Member of Congress; Gwen Faison, the Mayor of Camden. Thank you, Gwen. To all the other elected officials who are here, I am just glad to be back in Camden. When I was campaigning last year, I said I'd come back once I was President. I couldn't stay away. I like—I just like hanging out in New Jersey. I appreciate all of you who aren't at the Giants/Eagles game. [Laughter] I didn't mean to stir all that up, I'm sorry. All right, settle down now, settle down. Here's the reason I'm back. I am back because we are 2 days away—2 days away from making sure that New Jersey has the kind of quality leadership it deserves, two days away from making sure we're moving forward on education, two days away from making sure that we've got fairness in our economic system, two days away from reelecting Jon Corzine for another 4 years—2 days. Now, at this point in the campaign, you've heard all the arguments. You've seen all the TV ads. You know all the facts of this race. You know that Jon's running for reelection during a challenging time for New Jersey and a challenging time for America.

In developing our list, we eliminated anyone who currently holds elected office, as well as the Judiciary. This precludes some people, Assemblyman/Democratic State Chairman Joe Cryan, for example. We also eliminated the living former Governors, United States Senators, and, of course, Bill Gormley: we believe this particular group remains highly influential and well-respected.

We looked at policy makers, party leaders, fundraisers, lobbyists, labor unions, businesses, and associations and have assembled the ultimate list of New Jerseyans with clout, with an impact on politics and government in the Garden State. We selected names based on a fairly unscientific curve: we allocated spaces on this list for a dozen different categories within the New Jersey political community -- so #11 on the list of important fundraisers or donors doesn’t make the list, but the most influential congressional staffer does.

  • New Jersey Voters' Take on 2008
    _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Contact: PATRICK MURRAY For more information: 732-263-5858 (office) Monmouth University Polling Institute 732-979-6769 (cell) [email protected] 400 Cedar Avenue West Long Branch, NJ 07764 Released: www.monmouth.edu/polling Wednesday, April 30, 2008 NEW JERSEY VOTERS’ TAKE ON 2008 Senate – Lautenberg in good position for re-election; President – Dem voters turning from Clinton to Obama New Jersey voters have a lot to ponder, with unexpected contests in both parties’ U.S. Senate primaries and a national Democratic nomination that has yet to be settled. On the presidential side, Barack Obama’s message of change seems to have caused a change of heart among many Democratic voters who supported Hillary Clinton in the state’s February 5 th primary. And while a call for change also resonates in the U.S. Senate race, it does not seem to be enough in itself to incite voters to oust incumbent Frank Lautenberg. These are among the findings in the latest Monmouth University/Gannett New Jersey Poll . The Senate Race Despite New Jersey voters’ stated preference for a change of face, all signs point to Frank Lautenberg being in a strong position for re-election in both the primary and general elections. Overall, 48% of registered voters in the Garden State approve of the job Frank Lautenberg is doing in the United States Senate, another 31% disapprove and 21% have no opinion. Democrats approve of his job performance by a 59% to 19% margin, and independents give him an advantage at 49% approve to 32% disapprove. Republicans are largely negative – 24% approve to 54% disapprove.

  • CONGRESSIONAL SCORECARD MEASURING SUPPORT for EQUALITY in the 113TH CONGRESS Dear Friends
    CONGRESSIONAL SCORECARD MEASURING SUPPORT FOR EQUALITY IN THE 113TH CONGRESS Dear Friends, The 113th Congress served during a period of unprecedented progress for the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) community. Despite unusual levels of partisanship and gridlock on a range of issues from immigration to gun control, members of both parties were able to come together to advance historic, LGBT- friendly legislation. In this session, Congress passed an LGBT-inclusive reauthorization of the Violence Against Women Act (VAWA) with a strong bipartisan majority. Though the Matthew Shepard and James Byrd, Jr. Hate Crimes Prevention Act and the repeal of "Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell" were huge legislative milestones, the LGBT-inclusive VAWA represents the first time Congress has passed a non-discrimination law that protects LGBT Americans. The Senate’s bipartisan passage of the Employment Non-Discrimination Act (ENDA) was another historic milestone. Thanks to the incredible leadership of the lead sponsors, Sen. Jeff Merkley (D-OR) and Sen. Mark Kirk (R-IL), the bill earned the support of a broad majority of the Senate — including 10 Republicans. ©The Washington Post/Getty Images Post/Getty Washington ©The Unfortunately, the bill stalled in the House of Representatives due to opposition by the chamber’s leadership. Please note that this edition of the Congressional Scorecard also reflects whether a member of Congress supports or opposes marriage equality. With the majority of Americans living in states where marriage equality is the law of the land, no member of Congress should oppose the constitutional right of their constituents to marry the person that they love.
