SUMMARY:NJ-4 Town Hall with Rep. Chris Smith
DESCRIPTION:Congressman Smith has refused to host a town hall so constituents have organized one for him. Please join us February 22 at 6pm at the Monmouth County Library\nNJ-4 Town Hall with Rep. Chris Smith \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe meeting will be held Wednesday\, February 22\, 2017 from 6-8PM at the Monmouth County Library\, 125 Symmes Drive\, Manalapan\, NJ 07726 (where Smith met with the Alzheimer’s Association). Rep. Chris Smith has been invited to attend a nonpartisan public meeting to address his constituents’ concerns about health care. Questions will be shared with him before the meeting.The goal of the town hall is to provide a platform for members of the 4th District to express their concerns about the Affordable Care Act (ACA). According to research from the Kaiser Family Foundation\, more than 50\,000 people in the 4th District stand to lose coverage if the ACA is repealed.\nA medical professional will explain potential impact on the healthcare field; the audience will share stories and questions; and an expert will explain the recently released proposal to replace the ACA.\nYou do not need to submit a question or concern to RSVP.\n\nLink: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSeCuBrCqwVN6B5JYEBR6iysqIDnkzuwZbZT2HV8fCR4bX4iZQ/viewform?c=0&w=1

SUMMARY:Rally to Protect the Pines!
DESCRIPTION:On Tuesday\, join us for a rally and protest at the Statehouse in front of Governor Christie’s office. We’re telling him to protect the Pinelands and stop trying to push through dangerous pipelines like South Jersey Gas. We stopped the SJG pipeline once\, defeated it a second time\, and now we need to beat them a third time! In 2014\, the Pinelands Commission voted down this same proposal because it violated the Comprehensive Management Plan. Even though the facts and the application have not changed\, the Christie Administration is still strong arming the Pinelands Commission to move forward with this application.\nThe Pinelands Commission is meeting on Friday\, February 24th and that’s why we’re rallying on Tuesday to show them that the people of New Jersey oppose this pipeline and they need to deny it! Join us for a rally at the Statehouse in Trenton on Tuesday to make say that we oppose the SJG Pipeline and are standing up to protect the Pinelands!\nWHEN: Tuesday\, February 21st at Noon\nWHERE: Steps of the Statehouse in Trenton\, NJ\nCONTACT: toni.granato@sierraclub.org

SUMMARY:Not My President's Day - Rally
DESCRIPTION:If you would like to go to this event in NYC\, we have a group taking the train from Metuchen Station at 9:58 AM.\nDonald Trump is literally our President\, but figuratively\, he has attacked every value New Yorkers embody and does not represent our interests. We will be staging a rally at Columbus Circle to protest the un-American policies of the current White House:\n– He plans to cut federal funding to our state in an attempt to turn us against our immigrant population\, funneling money away from important public institutions.\n– He wants to use our tax money to build a wall that no one wants.\n– He attacked our Muslim communities and instituted an Islamophobic religious ban.\n– He approved a pipeline that threatens to destroy sacred lands.\n– His administration opposes a woman’s right to choose and purged the White House website of information pertaining to police brutality and LGBTQ rights.\n– His party doesn’t take climate change seriously and undermines our state’s efforts to combat it.\nDonald Trump stands against the progress we have worked hard to enact. He does not represent our interests. He was voted in by a minority of the American public but governs as if there’s no resistance. But there is — and on February 20th\, we will honor previous presidents by exercising our constitutional right to assemble and peacefully protest everything Donald Trump stands for.\nThere is a congressional recess on February 20th that aligns with President’s Day. Let’s rally while our federal representatives are back in town and remind them who they represent.\n#IMPEACH\n#RESIST\n#NOTMYPRESIDENT\nThis is a peaceful demonstration. It is a rally\, not a march.\nLocation: Trump International Hotel – 61st St & Central Park West.\nTime: 12pm – 4pm

DESCRIPTION:WORKERS AND STUDENTS OF THE NATION UNITE!\nWe will assemble at Washington Square Park to stand together in solidarity and protest during the National General Strike against the new administration.\nWE DEMAND\n1.

End the Global Gag Rule. We cannot put the medical care of millions of women around the globe at risk.\n5. Disclose and Divest. Show us your taxes. Sell your company. Ethics rules exist for a reason and presidents should focus on the country\, not their company.

SUMMARY:Oppose Trump's Cabinet Picks: Vote on Rick Perry
DESCRIPTION:Trump’s nominee for Secretary of Energy\, Rick Perry\, called for abolition of the department—then famously forgot which department it was—when he ran for President in 2012. He didn’t know the Department of Energy deals with nuclear issues– – not oil and gas– when he expressed interest in the position.\nCall your Senator and ask them to vote NO on cloture and NO on Perry for Secretary of Energy.

SUMMARY:Stop Conceal & Carry Protest
DESCRIPTION:This is from the Sussex County Chapter of the Brady Campaign to Stop Gun Violence:\nBrady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence will be protesting at Rep Rodney Frelinghusyen’s office on Wednesday\, February 8th from noon to 1pm. There is a very dangerous bill in committee right now called the Concealed Carry Reciprocity Act of 2017: This bill would enable a person who can obtain a permit from any state in the nation to carry concealed firearms throughout the country\, even in states where the person would otherwise be barred from having guns at all. \nIf this bill passes\, Joe Gunlover carries a gun in Mississippi where he lives and where gun laws are extremely lax. When he comes to visit his family in New Jersey he can bring his gun with him and carry it while he picks up milk at the Stop n Shop. \nJoin us Wednesday\, 2/8 from noon to 1pm. 30 Schuyler Place Morristown
