Rally 4 Equality! Wed. 23rd 11am Toms River. The word is spreading like wildfire and thousands of you are up in arms: One of the most grotesque instances of homophobia in New Jersey history has just taken place in Ocean County. As reported in the Asbury Park Press today, a policewoman with advanced lung cancer, deemed inoperable, was denied domestic partnership benefits for her partner because the Ocean County Administrator and Freeholders said it would not be "moral" to give such benefits to a same-sex couple. They also cited economic costs -- but truth be told, the costs would
be negligible.
PLEASE JOIN GARDEN STATE EQUALITY, THE ACLU OF NEW JERSEY, JERSEY SHORE PFLAG, NATIONAL ORGANIZATION OF WOMEN-NEW JERSEY, LAMBDA FAMILIES OF NEW JERSEY, THE CENTRAL JERSEY LESBIAN ALLIANCE AND DOZENS OF OTHER ORGANIZATIONS FOR A RALLY AT 11 AM ON WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 23 IN FRONT OF THE OCEAN COUNTY ADMINISTRATION BUILDING, 101 HOOPER AVENUE, TOMS RIVER. GARDEN STATE EQUALITY WILL PROVIDE COFFEE AND DANISH ON SITE FOR ALL RALLY ATTENDEES.
Democracy for America Meetups: DFA is one of the best hopes we have of retaking America. I strongly urge you to get involved with your local group. New Jersey for Democracy Meetups take place on the first Wednesday of every month @ 7pm. There are many meetups around the state: North, Central and South Jersey.
Common Cause: Common Cause is a major force in Progressive Politics. It was founded in 1970 (by a Republican, mind you!) to counter the influence of special interests in Washington. Today they work on many of the same issues I am trying to highlight. Check out the NJ Common Cause website.
Here is how you can find your local Dem clubs. Go to HERE and click on your county.
Drinking Liberally: An informal, inclusive weekly Democratic drinking club. Raise your spirits while you raise your glass, and share ideas while you share a pitcher. Drinking Liberally gives like-minded, left-leaning individuals a place to talk politics. You don't need to be a policy expert and this isn't a book club - just come and learn from peers, trade jokes, vent frustration and hang out in an environment where it's not taboo to talk politics. Find your local drinking liberally group or start your own with a few buddies: Currently there is only one group in New Jersey:
New Brunswick, 1st/3rd Tuesday each month, 7:00 PM @ Doll's Place, 101 Paterson St. New Brunswick, NJ
Hoboken, New Jersey, Second Tuesday of each month, 7:30 pm onward, Mulligan's, 159 1st Street (between Bloomfield and Garden), Hosted by David Alpert and Ali Savino, hoboken (at) drinkingliberally.org
Princeton, Every Thursday, 7:00 pm, Annex Restaurant at 128 Nassau St., Princeton. princeton@drinkingliberally.org
RUNNING FOR CHANGE: For those who prefer running to biking, you can join RUNNING FOR CHANGE: Building a progressive America through organized runs and other grassroots activities.
