“As a member of the New Jersey State Legislature, it’s truly an honor to endorse Newark Mayor Ras Baraka for re-election. When I’m in Trenton fighting for the residents of the 29th Legislative District, its good to have a friend and an exceptional leader on the local level as I bring back resources to the City of Newark and my district. Newark continues to move forward because of great partnerships in our state as Mayor Baraka continues to advocate for his city.

Please join me on May 10th, 2022 to vote for Mayor Baraka and the entire Team Baraka backed council candidates. It’s all about working together to move Newark forward and it’s important Mayor Baraka has the right team in place to get things done. “
