Two New Jersey bills (S2364 and S2365) would restrict the use military equipment by law enforcement in the state. Both have passed unanimously through the state senate (37-0) and through committee in the assembly (7-0) and need your help to get to the governor’s desk.
PLEASE TAKE THE FOLLOWING ACTIONS – It doesn’t matter where you live in the state, please follow all these steps to support S2364 and S2365.
1. Call your state assemblymember. Strongly, but respectfully urge them to vote YES on both S2364 and S2365. A phone call has 10x the impact of an email, so make sure to take a few minutes to call.
