Are You with US? Here’s a List of New Jersey Politicians Who Have Forfeited their Salaries During the COVID-19 Pandemic

Shore News Network

TRENTON, NJ – The list is very short and we’re hoping to encourage all of our state elected officials here in New Jersey to show solidarity with the people of New Jersey and immediately stop taking their pay while the rest of New Jersey is shut down and out of work.  The elected officials on this list have taken a bold step to show that they do care about the lives and livelihoods of everyday New Jersey residents and will share in our struggle!

If you are an elected official who wants to be added to this list, please email your proof to news@shorenewsnetwork.com.
