Today, they announced their first slate of endorsements. And guess who made the top of their list?
This is just the beginning. Between the sexist attacks from New Jersey’s corrupt political machine and the tens of thousands in corporate money pouring into his campaign, Rep. Payne Jr. is gearing up for a real fight.
