People United for Justice Rally

December 7, 2023 @ 10:30 am

Join us on December 7, along with dozens of New Jersey racial and social justice advocacy organizations, as we rally at the steps of the New Jersey State House Annex to continue to call for “The People’s Lame Duck Agenda.”

The rally follows a post-election day of action where advocates hand-delivered the agenda of 16 long-stalled, critical social justice bills to every New Jersey legislative office. Directly impacted community leaders, faith leaders, and advocates will speak on the urgency of taking proactive social justice action even in the face of backlash and hold-ups. Following the rally, the groups will meet with legislators inside the State House.
