John,
New
Jersey Senator Bob Menendez and his wife have been indicted on bribery
charges. This is the
second set of corruption charges he faces in a decade.
The
people of New Jersey deserve to be represented by principled leaders
who strive for integrity in all that they do. Sadly,
the legacy parties are no longer prioritizing character when getting
behind candidates—they're more interested in winning than seeing good
people win. While Sen.
Menendez is entitled to a fair
trial, the conduct alleged in the indictment is unacceptable. This is
a breach of the Forward Party’s core value of upholding integrity in
the electoral process.
More broadly, the fact that Sen. Menendez has been
indicted twice for fraud during his time in the Senate and continues
to be elevated to high-profile committee positions is more than enough
evidence for why we need to end the two-party duopoly and have more
competition in the political process.
The Forward Party is committed to
helping all Americans.
Together, we will keep fighting to return power to the people and
elect principled public servants who put their constituents' interests
above their own enrichment.
Please share this message with a
New Jerseyan who should know about our movement.
Not Left.
Not Right. Forward.
