I had such a great time at the HDSID All About Downtown street fair on Saturday! My team and I spent the day talking with residents about their concerns and providing information on city resources. I was also so happy to be able to connect with other local organizations throughout the day.

Happy National Dog Day! Every companion animal deserves a safe, loving home. Sadly, many are treated like commodities, and they end up in shelters and rescues or living a hard life they didn’t ask for.

Yesterday Ukrainian Jersey City held their 6th annual Vyshyvanka 5k Run/Walk! This is the third year I’ve run in it, and it keeps getting bigger and better every year. This year’s event raised over $11,000 to fund ambulances to provide lifesaving medical care in Ukraine. 💛

I was proud to rally Monday to support the Polluters Pay to Make New Jersey More Affordable Act! Climate change is here, and the costs of strengthening our infrastructure shouldn’t fall on everyday people. The corporations who contributed the most to the climate crisis need to pay their fair share!
Eleana speaks at the podium wearing a “Hot Girls for Climate” shirtProtesters hold signs saying “save our future,” “act now or sink later,” and “make polluters pay, text FWW to 23321”Protestors hold signs saying “protect NJ from the next flood” and “big oil funds fascism.”

My statement on the crash that occurred this morning.
A car struck a pedestrian this morning near Van Vorst Park. The pedestrian is in critical condition. This is a tragedy, and one that we see far too often in Jersey City. Too many people have been hurt or killed just trying to cross the street, and we are not doing enough to stop it.

The city needs real traffic calming now, especially near our parks and schools. I’ll be pushing the administration to fast-track improvements to this part of the city before another one of our neighbors is hit by a car. Traffic violence like this is preventable with the right policies and infrastructure in place.
