Hi everyone
I live in PA’s 11th district, which is right next door to NJ’s 5th. Scott Garrett is the incumbent Republican and one of the most right wing Republicans in the House. His record is to the right of Attila the Hun!
How wingnutty is his record?
Scott Garrett was the only member of the
New Jersey delegation to vote for oil and gas drilling off the shore of New Jersey.
He voted against stopping big oil from gouging prices!
He voted against child safety locks on guns.
He voted against the emergency funding for the Hurricane Katrina victims.
He also voted against reauthorizing the landmark Voting Rights Act.
He votes again and again against the middle class (an F grade from the Drum Major Institute).
He has the lowest environmental rating among any member of Congress.
Scott Garrett the darling of religious fundamentalists.
Garrett wants children to be taught religious creationism in the public schools.
How can a man like this represent New Jersey you ask?
Let’s pray that the fifth district (which includes blue-leaning Bergen County) is beginning to wake up
Garrett is so out of touch with moderate New Jersey.
This year the candidate is Dennis Shulman, a blind Rabbi with a very distinguished resume.
We need to get the word out and make this race a major upset victory!
Dennis is the underdog but he can do it with the support of progressives!
