A healthy city is a growing city that attracts private investment. We have done that in Jersey City better than any other city in the region. Today we broke ground on another 675 units, $400m project. Abundance theory is about more supply + we understand that in Jc

Before/After pictures - we cut the ribbon today on the new park Pavonia Marion. Over the last decade, there isn’t a city in NJ that has accomplished more than we have around open space + park improvements. #JerseyCity

Didn’t go the way we hoped last night, but I’m incredibly grateful. I’m proud of the campaign we ran—substantive, different, and true to our vision for NJ.
Taking a short break to recalibrate, but thank you all. Truly.

I’ve spent most of this campaign focused on meet & greets and connecting w/undecided, engaged voters- not street festivals. But today, I hit 3 major festivals in 3 different counties + the reception blew me away. I couldn’t be more excited and encouraged heading into Tuesday!

This Odd Lots interview with Fulop is great. You can tell when a YIMBY really knows what they're talking about and can get in the weeds vs someone who just says build/zoning/build/zoning.
