ATLANTIC HIGHLANDS, NJ - Women from all walks of life from political leader to the owner of a Cross Fits gym and an Olympian coach gathered a crowd of some 50 men and women Thursday evening to celebrate the centennial anniversary of the passage of the 19th amendment, giving women the right to vote.
The Women’s Rally was organized by Mayor Loretta Gluckstein and held at the municipal Yacht Harbor and highlighted women who spoke on how their own lives were impacted by the 1920 vote and included a story about the Tennessee Congressman whose affirmative vote for passage was impacted by his mother’s opinion.
The Rev. Debbie Cook, pastor of All Saints Episcopal Church in Navesink, traced the history of voting and slavery and the similarities and contrasts between the two, as well as the leaders including Harriet Tubman and Sojourner Truth who fought for freedom in both areas.

TRENTON, NJ - Today the New Jersey Assembly and Senate passed the precedent-setting Environmental Justice Bill (S.232 / A.2212). The legislation seeks to remedy the fact that minority and low-income communities throughout New Jersey disproportionately bear the burden of pollution, and this legislation allows the NJDEP to condition or deny permits for new sources of pollution based on the cumulative impacts of the project in these communities. The bill now goes to Governor Murphy’s desk, who is expected to sign the legislation having previously endorsed it.
"This is long overdue and an essential step forward. Governor Murphy's immediate support cannot come soon enough since every minute counts when it comes to protecting people's health from environmental risks,” said Cindy Zipf, Executive Director of Clean Ocean Action.
